Laughing Boy is drowned,
Sailed across the sea.
Whisky was his daily bread,
His like we'll never see, again.
And you should have seen him
dancing on the tables,
It was just like a play.
Laughing Boy, Laughing Boy it's over,
Laughing Boy, Laughing Boy it's over.
Laughing boy is drowned,
Danced on nimble toes
Angels wept at Caeser's head
He sang the "Old Dark Rose"
Sang it for free,
Stay awhile, fill your glass,
have another, yeah (just like a play).
Laughing Boy, Laughing Boy it's over,
Laughing Boy, Laughing Boy it's over.
Dublin streets are quiet tonight
There's a shadow on the water
Dublin streets are quiet tonight
There's a shadow on the water...
He can't stand up,
He can't stay down,
He wants to stay up,
He wants to stay down,
He hates himself,
No, he hates a crowd
He wants to be alone,
No, he wants to be surrounded
Laughing Boy, Laughing Boy it's over,
Laughing Boy, Laughing Boy it's over.
Dublin streets are quiet tonight,
There's a shadow on the water
Walking on the water, walking on the water
Walking on the water,
walking on the water...
