Verse
F# G# F# G#
In Glenravel’s Glen there lives a man whom some would call a god
F# G# F# C#
For he could cure your shakes with a bottle of his stuff would cost you thirty bob
G# F# F# G#
Come winter, summer, frost all over, a jiggin’ Spring on the breeze
C# F# C# G#
In the dead of night a man steps by, “McIlhatton, if you please”
[Chorus]
C# B F# C#
McIlhatton you blurt we need you, cry a million shaking men
C# F# C# B
Where are your sacks of barley, will your likes be seen again?
C# F# C# F#
Heres a jig to the man and a reel to the drop and a swing to the girl he loves
C# G# F# G#
May your fiddle play and poitín cure your company up above
[Verse 2]
F# G# F# G#
Theres a wisp of smoke to the south of the Glen and the poitín is on the air
F# G# F# C#
The birds in the burrows and the rabbits in the sky and there’s drunkards everywhere
G# F# F# G#
At Skerries Rock the fox is out and begod he’s chasing the hounds
C# F# C# G#
And the only thing in decent shape is buried beneath the ground
[Chorus]
C# B F# C#
McIlhatton you blurt we need you, cry a million shaking men
C# F# C# B
Where are your sacks of barley, will your likes be seen again?
C# F# C# F#
Heres a jig to the man and a reel to the drop and a swing to the girl he loves

May your fiddle play and poitín cure your company up above
[Verse 3]
F# G# F# G#
At McIlhatton's house the fairies are out and dancing on the hobs
F# G# F# C#
The goat's collapsed and the dog has run away and there's salmon down the bogs
G# F# F# G#
He has a million gallons of wash and the peelers are on the Glen
C# F# C# G#
But they'll never catch that hackler cos he's not comin' home again
[Chorus]
