Come[D] all you[A] loyal[D] he[A]ros and listen[G] on to [D]me
Dont[A] hire with any farmer 'till you[G] know what your work will[A] be You will rise up early in the morning from the[G] clear day till the[A] dawn And you[D] never[A] will be[D] able[A] for to plough the [G]rocks[A] of[D] Bawn My shoes they are worn and my stockingh they are thin My heart is always trembling now for fear they might give in My heart is always trembling now from the clear daylight 'till dawn And I never will be able for to plough the rocks of Bawn Rise up gallant Sweeney and get your horses hay And give them a good feen of oats before they start the away Dont feed them on soft turnip sprigs that grow on your green land Or they never will be able for to plough the rocks of Bawn My curse upon you Sweeney boy you have me nearly robbed You're sitting by the fireside now your feet upon the hob You're sitting by the fireside now from the clear daylight 'till the dawn And you never will be able now to plough the rocks of Bawn I wish the sergeant major would send for me in time And place me in some regiment all in my youth of prime I'd fight for Ireland's glory now from the clear daylight 'till the dawn Before I would return again to plough the rocks of Bawn |
