Lyrics
Intro
fiddle and tin whistle melody, distorted guitar power chords, driving drums
[group shout] Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
Verse 1
raspy vocals
I met a fine lass from south of Dublin
She brought me to mass with a wink and her smile bubbling
Said she moves fast and she's not for troubling
And she'll take me all or I'll have nothing
Chorus
full band, group backing vocals
Yes she said take me all or I'll have nothing
No soft little bargains, no gentle rebuffing
She'll have your whole heart or she'll leave you the same
That's the law from this sweet south Dublin flame
Instrumental Break
fiddle and tin whistle lead, heavy drum fills
Verse 2
After the bells rang out and the rain started lashing
She pulled me in behind the old yew tree, her eyes flashing
Lips like warm whiskey, hands bold on my chest
She whispered no half measures lover, give me your best
Or turn on your heel while the road's still drying
I don't do in-between and I won't even try
Chorus
Yes she said take me all or I'll have nothing
No soft little bargains, no gentle rebuffing
She'll have your whole heart or she'll leave you the same
That's the law from this sweet south Dublin flame
Bridge
drums drop to half-time, acoustic guitar and fiddle
So I followed her home through the Wicklow night mist
To a little stone cottage where the fire danced and hissed
She dropped every layer, first her soul then her skin
And we moved like the storm that had pulled us both in
Chorus
full energy returns
I said I'll take you all or I'll have nothing
No soft little bargains, no gentle rebuffing
She'll have your whole heart or she'll leave you the same
That's the law from this bold south Dublin flame
Outro
Take me all or I'll have nothing
And I gave her me all till the morning light bled
And now the road back to Dublin feels heavy and long
But I'd walk every mile just to hear her say again
Oh take me all or I'll have nothing
final fiddle flourish, big drum finish
