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