lyrics

In a big, old house, just as quiet as a mouse I sits and 'casionally reads about ol' Mars.
And in the dead of night, without a speck of light I studies through de window all de stars.
Then early in de morn, jussa before de break o' dawn I gets what little restin' dat I can.

Because I must be up, you see, to see folks what comes to me.
They all come see de fortune tellin' man.

I am dat fortune tellin' man.
There's no kinda dream that I can't understand.
I can tell your future by lookin' in your hand.
'Cause I am de fortune tellin' man.

The very next night, just before I lit de light a monstrous looking man came to my door.
He said he had a dream, and awful thing he'd seen: a spirit dressed in white walked 'cross his floor.
And so I looked into his hand and I said "See here, young man, your dream and both your hands they wear a veil."
I could read his great surprise as I telescoped his eyes and said "You'll marry quick or go to jail."

The Dublin City Rounders Dublin, Ireland

If The Dublin City Rounders were a dog it would be a pink bulldog with a cowboy hat, a studded leather collar and sporting a sleeveless denim jacket.

Two Irish brothers, one mind and a single beating heart made of rock n roll gold.
Whether playing a Stephen Foster esque song from the 1880’s or a brand new self penned classic you can’t take your eyes, or ears, off these lads!
