A ditty about poor old Murphy. grin

The Streets Of Dublin


©2014 Robert Randall Burke/BMI



Blackjack Murphy had a girl
Told her that he loved her
Shouted it to all the world
Put no one above her.
She couldn't love him so
He walks the streets of Dublin


Poor old Murphy tried and tried
To win the heart of Mary
Father cursed and mother cried
For true love was contrary.
But he couldn't let her go
So he walks the streets of Dublin.


Funny how a pretty girl
Strikes a young man's fancy
He won't have a Bernadette
A Siohban or a Nancy
His heart is captured so
He walks the streets of Dublin.


Blackjack Murphy had a girl
Told her that he loved her
Shouted it to all the world
Put no one above her.
But she couldn't love him so
He walks the streets of Dublin.


And he just can't let her go
So he walks the streets of Dublin.

Superb. I was beginning to think we were the only folks who used those RT's. But you not only made use of them but also wrote a great lyric the production. Herb mentioned Mike Cross...we also remember him, I think, and if memory serves he indeed did some similar work.

As always with your productions you hit the sweet spot -- not too little, not too much -- with everything simply "working."
Easy to say...not so easy to pull off.

Kudos!

Hi Bob.

Well, that took me by surprise!

Such a good groove going on behind your usual excellent vocal.

Loved it.

This is remarkably well done! You've delivered all of the amazing feel of an Irish song, and with a sensational "Dubliner" Accent to boot!

Most enjoyable.

Bob,
That`s the first reel I`ve heard using RT`s and I enjoyed- its got a great feeling and a good story in the lyrics.
Very well sung and produced - the accordion was a nice surprise.

Bob,

This is worthy on another notch or two in your songwriting belt. It's a terrific listen. Catchy melody and lyrics framed with a master arranger's choice of instruments. And your singing sounds so very comfortable nestled in amongst it all.

I thoroughly enjoyed what I heard.

Regards,
Noel
