Tonalité : Eb major
Verse 1
G
About twelve years ago
I was digging the land
With my brogs on my feet
A
and my spade in my hand
G
And says I to meself,
what a pity to see
Such a fine strapping lad
footin' turf in Tralee
With me toorin' and aah,
A
with me toorin' and aah
G
With me toorin' and noorin' and aah
And I buttered my brogs
and shook hands with my spade
And away to the fair
A
like a dashing young blade
G
I met with a sergeant,
he asked me to list
For a sergeant to crop
with the bob in my fist
With me toor -in -a -na,
A
with me toor -in -a -na
G
With me toor -in -a -noor -in -a
And the first thing they gave me,
it was a red coat
With a strap of fine leather
A
to tie round my throat
G
They gave me a quare thing,
I asked what was that,
And they told me it was
a cockade for me hat,
With me toor -in -a -na,
A
With me toor -in -a -na,
G
With me toor -in -a -noor -in
-a -na.
And the next thing they gave me
they called it a gun
With powder and shot
A
and a place for me thumb
G
And first she made fire, lads,
and then she spit smoke
And she gave me poor shoulder
a hell of a stroke
With me too, na -na -na
A
With me too, na -na -na
G
With me too, na -na -na, na -na -na
And then they marched us all
down to the sea,
And aboard of a warship
A
bound for the Crimea,
G
With three sticks in the middle,
all covered with sheets,
And she'd walk on the water
without any feet,
With me to Urena -na,
A
with me to Urena -na,
D
G
With me to Urena -na, Urena -na.
And when at Ballyclav
we landed quite sound,
We were called wet and hungry,
A
and lay on the ground,
G
Next morning for action the bugle did call,
And we got a hot breakfast
of powder and ball,
With me too, dee -na -na,
A
with me too, dee -na -na,
D
With me too, dee -na
G
-na, dee -na -na.
And twas often, I thought,
on my mother at home,
A
G
And while I was with her,
A
I was ma galore.
G
When the bullets'd fly, lads,
I did let them pass,
I got down in the ditch,
for fear I'd be shat,
With me too, na -na -na,
A
With me too, na -na -na,
G
With me too, na -na -na, na -na -na.
