Verse 1
In the (G major) days I went to court (D major)
and I was never tired resorting (G major)
To the alehouse or the (D major) playhouse
or a money's house beside (G major)
I told me brother Seamus (D major)
I'd go off and go right fam (G major) ous
And before I'd come back (D major) again,
I'd roam the world wide (G major)
So goodbye, mercy darken, (D major)
I'm sick and tired of workin' (G major)
No more I'll dig no pret (D major) ties,
no longer I'll be fooled (G major)
Sure as me name is Car (D major) ney,
I'll be off to Californi (G major) a
For instead of diggin' pret (D major) ties,
I'll be diggin' lumps of gold (G major)
I've courted girls in Blarney, (D major)
in Kentucky and in Killarney
(G major) In Passage and in Queenstown, (D major)
there is the Cove of Cork (G major)
Goodbye to all this pleas (D major) ure,
for I'm going to take me let (G major) ter
And the next that you will hear (D major) from me
is a letter from New York (G major)
So goodbye Mercy Birk (D major) in,
I'm sick and tired of workin' (G major)
No more I'll dig the pret (D major) ties,
no longer I'll be fooled (G major)
Sure as my name's Carney, (D major)
I'll be off to Californi (G major) a
For instead of diggin' pret (D major) ties,
I'll be diggin' Lonesome Grove (G major)
(D major) (G major) (D major)
(G major) (D major) (G major) (D major)
(G major)
Goodbye to all the (D major) boys at home
I'm sailin' far across (G major) the foam
To try and make me for (D major) tune
in Far America
There's (G major) gold and money plenty (D major)
for the poor for the gentry, (G major)
and when I come back (D major) again,
I never more will say, (G major)
let's hear you sing!
Goodbye, Mercy Durk (D major) in,
I'm sick and tired of workin' (G major)
No more I'll dig the pret (D major) ties,
no longer I'll be fooled (G major)
As sure as my name is Car (D major) ney,
I'll be off to Californi (G major) a
Where instead of diggin' pret (D major) ties,
I'll be diggin' lumps of gold (G major)
I'm (D major) sick and tired of workin' (G major)
No more, I'll dig the crudies (D major)
No longer, I'll be fooled (G major)
As sure as me name is canny (D major)
I'll be off to Californi (G major) a
For instead of diggin' crudies (D major)
I'll be diggin' lumps of coal (G major)
(D major) (G major) (D major)
(G major) (G major)
Ladies and gentlemen,
how about the one and only,
Mr. Johnny McAvoy!
Once again, Johnny McAvoy!
I want to stay with the great Irish
songwriters.
Here's another one.
A great song written by the great Liam
Riley of Bagatelle.
It's a song called The Streets of New York.
