The Little Beggarman - Tommy Makem[00:00:00]

I am a little beggarman[00:00:03]

And begging I have been[00:00:04]

For three score or more[00:00:06]

In this little isle of green[00:00:07]

I'm known from the liffey[00:00:08]

Down to segue[00:00:09]

And I'm known by the name of[00:00:11]

Old Johnny Dhu[00:00:12]

Of all the trade's that's going sure[00:00:13]

Begging is the best[00:00:15]

For when a man is[00:00:16]

Tired he can sit down and rest[00:00:17]

He can beg for his dinner[00:00:19]

He has nothing else to do[00:00:20]

Only cut around the corner[00:00:21]

With his old rig a doo[00:00:22]

I slept in the barn[00:00:27]

Down at caurabawn[00:00:28]

A wet night came on[00:00:29]

And I slept 'till the dawn[00:00:31]

With holes in the roof[00:00:32]

And the rain coming through[00:00:33]

And the rats and the cats[00:00:35]

They were playing peek a boo[00:00:36]

Who should I waken[00:00:37]

But the woman of the house[00:00:38]

With her white spotty apron[00:00:40]

And her calico blouse[00:00:41]

She began to frighten[00:00:42]

And I said boo[00:00:43]

Aarah don't be afraid[00:00:45]

Mam it's only Johnny Dhu[00:00:46]

I met a little flaxy haired[00:00:50]

Girl one day[00:00:52]

Good morning little flaxy haired[00:00:53]

Girl I did say[00:00:54]

Good morning little beggarman[00:00:55]

A how do you do[00:00:56]

With your rags and you tags[00:00:58]

And you old rig a doo[00:00:59]

I'll buy a pair of leggings[00:01:01]

A collar and a tie[00:01:02]

And a nice young lady[00:01:03]

I'll fetch by and by[00:01:04]

I'll buy a pair of goggles[00:01:06]

And I'll color them blue[00:01:07]

And an old fashioned lady[00:01:08]

I will make her too[00:01:09]

Over the road[00:01:13]

With my pack on my back[00:01:14]

Over the fields[00:01:16]

With my great heavy sack[00:01:17]

With holes in my shoes[00:01:19]

And my toes peeping through[00:01:20]

Singing skinny me rink a doodle o[00:01:21]

And old Johnny Dhu[00:01:23]

I must be going to bed[00:01:24]

For it's getting late at night[00:01:25]

The fire's all raked[00:01:26]

And out goes the light[00:01:27]

So now you've heard the story[00:01:29]

Of my old rig a doo[00:01:30]

It's good bye and god be with us[00:01:32]

Said old Johnny Dhu[00:01:34]
