Fiddlers Green
[Verse 1]
As I roved by the dockside one evening so rare
To view the still waters and take the salt air
I heard an old fisherman singing this song
He sat take me away lads my Time is not long

[Chorus]
Rub me up in me oilskin and jumper
No more on the docks I'll be seen
Just tell me old shipmates
I'm taking a trip, mates
And I'll see you one day in Fiddler's Green

[Verse 2]
Now Fiddler's Green is a Place I've heard tell
Where fishermen go if they don't go to Hell
Wherе the weather is fair
And thе dolphins do play
And the Cold coast of Greenland
Are far, far away
[Chorus]
Rub me up in me oilskin and jumper
No more on the docks I'll be seen
Just tell me old shipmates
I'm taking a trip, mates
And I'll see you one day in Fiddler's Green

[Verse 3]
O the weather is fair
And there's never a gale
And the fish jump on board
With a squisch of their tail

[Verse 4]
You can lie at your hammer
There's no work to do
And the skipper's below
Making Tea for the crew

[Chorus]
Rub me up in me oilskin and jumper
No more on the docks I'll be seen
Just tell me old shipmates
I'm taking a trip, mates
And I'll see you one day in Fiddler's Green
[Verse 5]
I don't want a harp
Or a halo, not me
Just give me a breeze
And a good Rolling sea

[Verse 6]
And I'll play m eold squeeze box
As we sail along
When the wind's in the rigging
To sing me this song

[Chorus]
Rub me up in me oilskin and jumper
No more on the docks I'll be seen
Just tell me old shipmates
I'm taking a trip, mates
And I'll see you one day in Fiddler's Green
