"The Road Not Taken" lyrics

Packed my bags I'm leavin' town
On the road not taken
All the way from County Down down to Connolly station
Trying to make my mother proud in the world I'm facing
Just came in from County Down on the road not taken

Ay oh ay oh on the road not taken
Ay oh ay oh on the road not taken

Jimmy crossed the Irish Sea
On the road not taken
Looking for a job you see
Ireland wouldn't take him
Trying to make his mother proud in the world he's facin'
Back in 1845 on the road not taken

Ay oh ay oh on the road not taken
Ay oh ay oh on the road not taken
On the road we're on the road we're on the road not taken
On the road we're on the road we're on the road not taken
On the road we're on the road we're on the road not taken
On the road we're on the road we're on the road not taken

1847 saw a drop in population
Now we stand and sing this song to mourn and celebrate them
Tell their stories pass them down
Through all the generations...
For someday you might find yourself
On the road not taken

Ay oh ay oh on the road not taken
Ay oh ay oh on the road not taken
Ay oh ay oh on the road not taken
Someday you will find yourself
On the road not taken
