D#
I had a first cousin called Arthur McBride
G# D# Fm G#
he and I took a stroll down by the seaside
D# Cm
a seeking good fortune and what might the tide
D# Fm G# A#
it was just as the day was a dawning
D# G# D#
And after we rested we went on a tramp
G# D# Fm G#
we met Seargeant Napper and Corporal Cramp
D# Cm
and a little wee drummer who beat up our camp
A# G# D#
with his rowdy dou dou in the morning
D#
He said my young fellows if you will enlist
G# D# Fm G#
a guinea you quickly shall have in your fist
D# Cm
and besides a crown for to kick up the dust
D# Fm G# A#
and drink the King's health in the morning
D# G# D#
but had we been such fools as to take the advance
G# D# Fm G#
the wee bit of money we'd have to run chance
D# Cm
do you think it no scuples for to send us to France
A# G# D#
where we would be killed in the morning
D#
He says my young fellows if I hear but one word
G# D# Fm G#
instantly now will out with my sword
D# Cm
and into your bodies as strength might afford
D# Fm G# A#
so now me gay devils take warning
D# G# D#
but Arthur and I we soon took the odds
G# D# Fm G#
and we gave them no chance for to draw out their swords
D# Cm
our wacking shillelaghs came over their heads
A# G# D#
and paid them right smart in the morning
D#
As for the wee drummer we rifled his pouch
G# D# Fm G#
and we made a football of his rowdy dou dou
D# Cm
and into the ocean for to rock and to roll and
D# Fm G# A#
barring the day its returning
D# G# D#
as for the ould rapier that hung by his side
G# D# Fm G#
we flung as far as we could in the tide
D# Cm
To the divil I pitch you says Arthur McBride
A# G# D#
to temper your edge in the morning.
