<pre><font size='+2'>GOODBYE MRS DURKIN lyrics IRISH ROVERS</font><br>Goodbye Mrs. Durkin, I`m sick and tired of workin`.<br />
No more I`ll dig your praties, no longer I`ll be poor.<br />
As sure as my name is Barney, I`m off to Califarny.<br />
Instead of digging praties, I`ll be digging lumps of gold.<br />
<br />
In the days when I was courting, I was never tired resorting<br />
To the alehouse and the playhouse, and the other house besides.<br />
But I told my brother Seamus, `I`ll be off now and grow famous<br />
And before that I return again, I`ll roam the whole world wide.`<br />
<br />
So, it`s goodbye Mrs. Durkin, I`m sick and tired of workin`.<br />
No more I`ll dig your praties, no longer I`ll be poor.<br />
As sure as my name is Barney, I`m off to Califarny.<br />
Instead of digging praties, I`ll be digging lumps of gold.<br />
<br />
Well, I`ve courted girls in Blarney, in Antrim and Killarney,<br />
In Dublin and in Kerry, down to the coves of Cork.<br />
But I`m tired of all this pleasure, so now I`ll take my leisure.<br />
And the next time that you hear from me, I`ll write you from new York.<br />
<br />
So, it`s goodbye Mrs. Durkin, I`m sick and tired of workin`.<br />
No more I`ll dig your praties, no longer I`ll be poor.<br />
As sure as my name is Barney, I`m off to Califarny.<br />
Instead of digging praties, I`ll be digging lumps of gold.<br />
<br />
When I landed in America, I met a man named Burke.<br />
He told me if I`d stay a while, he`d surely find me work.<br />
But work he didn`t find me, so there`s nothing here to bind me.<br />
I`m bound for San Francisco, in Califor-ni-yay!<br />
<br />
So, it`s goodbye Mrs. Durkin, I`m sick and tired of workin`.<br />
No more I`ll dig your praties, no longer I`ll be poor.<br />
As sure as my name is Barney, I`m off to Califarny.<br />
Instead of digging praties, I`ll be digging lumps of gold.<br />
<br />
Well, I`m now in San Francisco, and my fortune it is made.<br />
My pockets loaded down with gold, I`ll throw away my spade.<br />
I`ll go back to dear old Erin, spend my fortune never carin`.<br />
I`ll marry Queen Victori`, Mrs. Durkin for to spite.<br />
<br />
So, it`s goodbye Mrs. Durkin, I`m sick and tired of workin`.<br />
No more I`ll dig your praties, no longer I`ll be poor.<br />
As sure as my name is Barney, I`m off to Califarny.<br />

Goodbye Mrs. Durkin, I`m sick and tired of workin`.
No more I`ll dig your praties, no longer I`ll be poor.
As sure as my name is Barney, I`m off to Califarny.
Instead of digging praties, I`ll be digging lumps of gold.

In the days when I was courting, I was never tired resorting
To the alehouse and the playhouse, and the other house besides.
But I told my brother Seamus, `I`ll be off now and grow famous
And before that I return again, I`ll roam the whole world wide.`

So, it`s goodbye Mrs. Durkin, I`m sick and tired of workin`.
No more I`ll dig your praties, no longer I`ll be poor.
As sure as my name is Barney, I`m off to Califarny.
Instead of digging praties, I`ll be digging lumps of gold.

Well, I`ve courted girls in Blarney, in Antrim and Killarney,
In Dublin and in Kerry, down to the coves of Cork.
But I`m tired of all this pleasure, so now I`ll take my leisure.
And the next time that you hear from me, I`ll write you from new York.

So, it`s goodbye Mrs. Durkin, I`m sick and tired of workin`.
No more I`ll dig your praties, no longer I`ll be poor.
As sure as my name is Barney, I`m off to Califarny.
Instead of digging praties, I`ll be digging lumps of gold.

When I landed in America, I met a man named Burke.
He told me if I`d stay a while, he`d surely find me work.
But work he didn`t find me, so there`s nothing here to bind me.
I`m bound for San Francisco, in Califor-ni-yay!

So, it`s goodbye Mrs. Durkin, I`m sick and tired of workin`.
No more I`ll dig your praties, no longer I`ll be poor.
As sure as my name is Barney, I`m off to Califarny.
Instead of digging praties, I`ll be digging lumps of gold.

Well, I`m now in San Francisco, and my fortune it is made.
My pockets loaded down with gold, I`ll throw away my spade.
I`ll go back to dear old Erin, spend my fortune never carin`.
I`ll marry Queen Victori`, Mrs. Durkin for to spite.

So, it`s goodbye Mrs. Durkin, I`m sick and tired of workin`.
No more I`ll dig your praties, no longer I`ll be poor.
As sure as my name is Barney, I`m off to Califarny.
Instead of digging praties, I`ll be digging lumps of gold
