[Verse 1]
Bm
One fine summer's morning, both gallant and gay,
Bm
Twenty-four ladies went out on the quay,
Bm
And a regiment of soldiers did soon pass them by,
Bm
E drummer and one of them soon caught his eye.
[Verse 2]
Bm F#m Bm
He went to his comrades and to them did say,
Bm F#m
"Twenty-four ladies I saw yesterday,
Gmaj7 F#m
Oh, and one of those ladies she has me heart won,
Gmaj7 A F#m Bm
And if she denies me then surely I'm done."
[Verse 3]
Bm F#m Bm
"Go off to this woman and tell her your blight
Bm F#m
Tell her she's wounded your poor heart inside.
Gmaj7 F#m
Go and tell her she's wounded your poor heart, full sore,
Gmaj7 A F#m Bm
And if she denies you what can you do more?"
[Verse 4]
Bm F#m Bm
So early next morning this young man arose,
Bm F#m
And he dressed himself up in a fine suit of clothes,
Gmaj7 F#m
With a watch in his pocket and a cane in his hand,
Gmaj7 A F#m Bm
He saluted those ladies as he walked down the strand.
[Interlude]
Bm F#m
[Verse 5]
Bm F#m Bm
Well he walked up to her and he says "Pardon me,
Bm F#m
Pardon me lady for making so free,
Gmaj7 F#m
Me fine honored lady, you have me heart won,
Gmaj7 A F#m Bm
And if you deny me I'm surely undone."
[Verse 6]
Bm F#m Bm
"Go off little drummer, now what do you mean?
Bm F#m/A F#m
For I'm the lord's daughter of Ballycasteen.
Gmaj7 A
I'm the lord's daughter of honour, you see,
Gmaj7 A F#m Bm
Go little drummer, you're making too free."
[Verse 7]
Bm F#m Bm
So he put on his hat and he bade her farewell
Bm F#m
Saying "I'll send my soul down to heaven or hell.
Gmaj7 F#m
For with this long pistol that hangs by my side,
Gmaj7 A F#m Bm
I'll put an end to my own dreary life."

[Verse 8]
Bm
"Come back little drummer, now what do you mean,
Bm
For I do not want to be guilty of sin,
Bm
To be guilty of innocent blood for to spill.
Bm
Come back little drummer, I'm here at your will."
[Verse 9]
Em F#m Gmaj7 Bm
"We'll hire a car and to Bansheer we'll go.
Bm F#m
There we'll be married in spite of our foes.
Gmaj7 F#m
But what can they say when it's over and done,
Gmaj7 A F#m Bm
But I fell in love with the roll of your drum?"
