Cork Hill (The Rocky Road To Dublin)

By James Stephens

Come all ye happy children, and Gather round me hand in hand, Dancing to the merry cry, "See the Robbers Passing By." Past the Castle we will dance To the Mansion House, and prance Back by George's Street and cry, "See the Robbers Passing By." Gather then ye children all Into ranks processional, Marching to the merry cry, "See the Robbers Passing By."
