Ronnie Drew - Theres Life In the Old Dog Yet 

I was priveledged to play fiddle on this track , God rest ye Ron . Jf

Could listen to Ronnie Drew for hours. Love the message songs.

When I started out in this journey, never knew there’d be no turning back I’ve being carried along by the love of the songs, of the music and the cráic With some wild and crazy companions I’ve soldiered many is the year There was none of us saints, but I’ve got no complaints That was then, this is now, I’m still here But it’s not over till it’s over, and not till the fat lady sings etc... continues the refrain

so perfect, there are no words

One of the greatest songs ever written I personally think.

.. at the end of his life... This beautiful song! Thanks Ronnie..

This is beyond any descriptive power ❤️

Thank you mate! :) the last verse wasn't easy but with your help it's much more clear now! greetings from Italy! :D

best album he ever did 2006... Well done Phil Coulter

Andrea, quello che ho capito è questo what I understood is this. English is not my first language, so if someone could confirm that, it would be nice: "In my time I’ve been a few places and I’ve many the story to tell I’ve sung with the best and I’ve drunk with the rest I’ve known heaven, I’ve known hell There are friends I choose to remember and friends I’d sooner forget I’ve known winners, I’ve known sinners, I’ve known joy and I’ve known regret But it’s not over till it’s over... (continues)

Wonderful an so poetic song, just love his rough voice.. I've tried to write down the lyrics but there are some parts i don't understand (italian here).. :( no joy googling, someone has the lyrics please?

sounds like the (peaker dunne the legend)

What album is this song in?

I wonder if he was quoting Yogi Berra when he sings "it's not over till it's over" or if it was just coincidental, LOL.

It looks like Russian tune and balalaika
