[Verse 1]
Em
One fine summer's morning, both gallant and gay,
Em
Twenty-four ladies went out on the quay,
Em
And a regiment of soldiers did soon pass them by,
Em
A drummer and one of them soon caught his eye.
[Verse 2]
Em Bm Em
He went to his comrades and to them did say,
Em Bm
"Twenty-four ladies I saw yesterday,
Cmaj7 Bm
Oh, and one of those ladies she has me heart won,
Cmaj7 D Bm Em
And if she denies me then surely I'm done."
[Verse 3]
Em Bm Em
"Go off to this woman and tell her your blight
Em Bm
Tell her she's wounded your poor heart inside.
Cmaj7 Bm
Go and tell her she's wounded your poor heart, full sore,
Cmaj7 D Bm Em
And if she denies you what can you do more?"
[Verse 4]
Em Bm Em
So early next morning this young man arose,
Em Bm
And he dressed himself up in a fine suit of clothes,
Cmaj7 Bm
With a watch in his pocket and a cane in his hand,
Cmaj7 D Bm Em
He saluted those ladies as he walked down the strand.
[Interlude]
Em Bm
[Verse 5]
Em Bm Em
Well he walked up to her and he says "Pardon me,
Em Bm
Pardon me lady for making so free,
Cmaj7 Bm
Me fine honored lady, you have me heart won,
Cmaj7 D Bm Em
And if you deny me I'm surely undone."
[Verse 6]
Em Bm Em
"Go off little drummer, now what do you mean?
Em Bm/D Bm
For I'm the lord's daughter of Ballycasteen.
Cmaj7 D
I'm the lord's daughter of honour, you see,
Cmaj7 D Bm Em
Go little drummer, you're making too free."
[Verse 7]
Em Bm Em
So he put on his hat and he bade her farewell
Em Bm
Saying "I'll send my soul down to heaven or hell.
Cmaj7 Bm
For with this long pistol that hangs by my side,
Cmaj7 D Bm Em
I'll put an end to my own dreary life."

[Verse 8]
Em
"Come back little drummer, now what do you mean,
Em
For I do not want to be guilty of sin,
Em
To be guilty of innocent blood for to spill.
Em
Come back little drummer, I'm here at your will."
[Verse 9]
Am Bm Cmaj7 Em
"We'll hire a car and to Bansheer we'll go.
Em Bm
There we'll be married in spite of our foes.
Cmaj7 Bm
But what can they say when it's over and done,
Cmaj7 D Bm Em
But I fell in love with the roll of your drum?"
