Well,[D] did you ever make col[D7]cannon made with [G]lovely pickled [Em]cream
With the [C]greens and scallions [G]mingled like a [Em]picture in a [C]dream
Did you [D]ever make a [D7]hole on top to [G]hold the meltin' [Em]flake
Of the [C]creamy flavored [G]butter that our [C]mothers used to [D7]make
Oh[D] you [G]did, so you[C] did
so did [Bm]he and so did [Am]I
And the[D7] more I think about it
sure the [G]nearer I'm to[C] cry
Oh [D]weren't them the happy days
when[G] troubles we knew[Bm] not
And or[D7] mother made colcannon
in the [G]little skillet[D] pot
Well, did you ever take potato cake
and boxty to the school
Tucked underneath your oxter with
your books, your slate and rule
And when teacher wasn't looking'
sure a great big bite you'd take
Of the creamy flavored soft and melting'
sweet potato cake
Chorus
Well did you ever go a courtin' boys
when the evenin' sun went down
And the moon began a peepin'
from behind the Hill O' Down
And you wandered down the boreen
where the clúrachán was seen
And you whispered lovin' praises to
your own dear sweet cáilín
With the [C]greens and scallions [G]mingled like a [Em]picture in a [C]dream
Did you [D]ever make a [D7]hole on top to [G]hold the meltin' [Em]flake
Of the [C]creamy flavored [G]butter that our [C]mothers used to [D7]make
Oh[D] you [G]did, so you[C] did
so did [Bm]he and so did [Am]I
And the[D7] more I think about it
sure the [G]nearer I'm to[C] cry
Oh [D]weren't them the happy days
when[G] troubles we knew[Bm] not
And or[D7] mother made colcannon
in the [G]little skillet[D] pot
Well, did you ever take potato cake
and boxty to the school
Tucked underneath your oxter with
your books, your slate and rule
And when teacher wasn't looking'
sure a great big bite you'd take
Of the creamy flavored soft and melting'
sweet potato cake
Chorus
Well did you ever go a courtin' boys
when the evenin' sun went down
And the moon began a peepin'
from behind the Hill O' Down
And you wandered down the boreen
where the clúrachán was seen
And you whispered lovin' praises to
your own dear sweet cáilín
