Dublin Boys - Antje Duvekot

Sweet city of Dublin, I am heading out
Cause all the houses on your streets are burning down
Oh, but not to worry, cause I will be okay
Yes, I will pick myself back up another day
But I am dirty from the traveling
And I miss my family

So goodbye, Dublin boys, farewell
I gave you my best shot
But you never could tell
I'm gonna pack my suitcase
And sing to myself
Goodbye

I know that things gotta change, it's what they always do
Oh, but change has never been known to wait for you
I'm gonna go where the green is
Don't wanna live for brown
I'm gonna get back on my horse till I go down
And you're more beautiful than ever
And it just goes to show

So goodbye, Dubling boys, farewell
I have you my best shot
But you never could tell
I'm gonna pack my suitcase
And sing to myself

Goodbye, Dublin boys, farewell
I gave you my best shot
But you never could tell
I'm gonna pack my suitcase
And sing to myself
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

Goodbye, Dublin boys, farewell
I gave you my best shot
But you never could tell
I'm gonna pack my suitcase
And sing to myself
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
