Lyrics
Pack my bags I'm leaving 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 facing
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
To all the generations
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
