Fiddler On The Rooftop - Paddy Goes to Holyhead, Mark Patrick

When I’m feeling sad and low

And don’t know what to do

I climb the stairs and leave it all behind

Far away the world below

I rise to play my tune

Feeling one of a kind

Fiddler on the Rooftop I’m playing my song

Right beneath the sunny sky that’s where I belong

There’s one place I can tell you

Just listen when I go

A simple little melody with all my heart and soul

Fiddler on the Rooftop I’m playing my song

While walking through the valley

From the north down to the south

People start to follow me and sing

Arriving into town much later

Then the word of mouth

A grand reception as if I were king

Everybody knew my tune

They sang it note for note

They put their heart and soul in every line

I climbed up on the Rooftop

And «boy that’s all she wrote»

Playing your song and mine

There’s no need to question

There’s only one direction

When you’re down and out

Fiddler on the Rooftop

Rosin' up your bow

And raise it up and let it out!

Fiddler on the Rooftop I’m playing my song

Right beneath the sunny sky that’s where I belong

Just listen when I go

A simple little melody with all my heart and soul

Fiddler on the Rooftop I’m playing my song
