Verse 2

The misses came out to the door and

she asked me to come in

To me right fol- ooral- addy,

well indeed I did"

And the servants cried "The devil,
has he come to block us all

don't you know I have
G

To me right fol- ooral- addy,
G 
well indeed I have"

Verse 4
F 
She took me up the stairs, me lads, to
G 
show me what to do
Then she fell on the feathery
bed and I fell on it too
"Well indeed I did,
D 
don't you know I did
G 
D 
To me right fol- ooral- addy,
G 
well indeed I did"

don't you know I was

To me right fol- ooral- addy,

She put her hand into her pocket and she
F 
G 
pulled out twenty pounds
"Take that my jolly tinker and
we'll have another round"
"Well, indeed we will,
D 
don't you know we will
G 
D 
To me right fol- ooral- addy,
G 
well indeed we will"

Verse 7
G 
Well, I've been a jolly tinker for
these forty years or more
G 
But such a lovely job as that,
I never did before
G 
Well, indeed I didn't,
D 
don't you know I didn't...
G 
D 
To me right fol- ooral- addy,
G 
well indeed I didn't"
