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