Verse 1
G
C
In the sweet country Limerick
F
C
one cold winter's night
All the turf fires were burning
F
G
when I first saw the light
C
And a drunken old midwife
F
C
went tipsy with joy
I see dust round the floor
G
with her slip of a boy
C
F
We sing it banyan, bowis and gouda,
C
G
C
And the juice of the barley for me.
F
C
Well when I was a gossan of eight years or so,
With me turf and me primer to
F
G
school I did go,
C
To a dusty old schoolhouse
F
C
without any door,
F
G
Where lay the schoolmaster blind drunk on the floor,
C
F
singing, Gagnon, Gois, and Gauguin,
C
G
C
and the juice of the barley for me.
F
At the learning, I wasn't such a genius,
C
I'm thinking,
but I soon bet the master
F
G
entirely at drinking.
C
Not a week or a wedding
F
C
for five miles around,
but meself in the corner was
F
G
sure to be found.
C
F
Singing Banyan, Moissan, Gaonum,
C
G
C
and the juice of the barley for me
One Sunday the priest
F
thread me out from the altar
C
Saying you'll end up your days
F
G
with your neck in a halter
C
And you'll dance a fine jig
F
C
between heaven and hell
G
C
And his words they did frighten me,
G
the truth for to tell
C
F
Singin' banyan, hoisin, gouda,
C
G
C
and the juice of the barley for me
So the very next morning
F
C
as dawn it did break
I went down to the vestry,
F
G
the pledge for to take
C
And there in that room
F
C
sat the priest in a bunch
Round a big roaring fire,
G
drinkin' tumblers of fun
C
F
Singin' banyan, boas, and gouda,
C
G
C
and the juice of the barley for me
Well from that day to this
F
C
I have wandered alone
I'm a jack of all trades
F
G
and a master of none
C
With the sky for me roof
F
C
and the earth for me floor
And I'll dance out my days
G
drinkin' whiskey galore
C
Singin' by the young boy
F
with sun -gown up
C
G
C
And the juice of the barley for me
