Lyrics Christy Moore

Christy Moore

Cliffs Of Dooneen

You may travel far far from your own native home

Far away o'er the mountains, far away o'er the foam

But of all the fine places that I've ever seen

There's none to compare with the cliffs of Dooneen

Take a view o'er the mountains, fine sights you'll see there

You'll see the high rocky mountains on the west coast of Clare

The towns of Kilkee and Kilrush can be seen

From the high Rocky slopes of the Cliffs of Dooneen

Fare thee well to Dooneen, Fare thee well for a while

And to all the fine people I'm leaving behind

To the streams and the meadows where late I have been

And the high rocky slopes of the Cliffs of Dooneen

You may travel for far from your own native home

Far away o'er the mountains, far away o'er the foam

But of all the fine places that I've ever seen

There's none to compare with the Cliffs of Dooneen
