[00:31.19]I am a little beggarman and begging I have been
[00:33.31]For three score or more in this little isle of green
[00:35.5]I'm known from the Liffey down to Segue
[00:37.93]And I'm known by the name of old Johnny Dhu
[00:40.31]Of all the trade's that's going sure begging is the best
[00:42.93]For when a man is tired he can sit down and rest
[00:45.48]He can beg for his dinner he has nothing else to do
[00:47.67]Only cut around the corner with his old rig-a-doo

[00:59.86]I slept in the barn down at Caurabawn
[01:02.17]A wet night came on and I slept 'till the dawn
[01:04.54]With holes in the roof and the rain coming through
[01:06.72]And the rats and the cats they were playing peek-a-boo
[01:09.29]When who did I waken but the woman of the house
[01:11.46]With her white spotty apron and her calico blouse
[01:13.96]She began to frighten and I said "boo

[01:28.51]I met a little flaxy-haired girl one day
[01:30.89]"Good morning little flaxy-haired girl" I did say
[01:33.19]"Good morning little beggarman a how do you do
[01:35.5]With your rags and you tags and you old rig-a-doo"
[01:38.57]I'll buy a pair of leggings a collar and a tie
[01:40.68]And a nice young lady I'll fetch by and by
[01:42.81]I'll buy a pair of goggles and I'll colour them blue
[01:45.18]And an old fashioned lady I will make her too
[02:02.65]Over the road with my pack on my back
[02:04.96]Over the fields with my great heavy sack
[02:07.2]With holes in my shoes and my toes peeping through
[02:09.51]Singing skinny-me-rink a doodle o and old Johnny Dhu
[02:11.94]I must be going to bed for it's getting late at night
[02:14.19]The fire's all raked and out goes the light
[02:16.55]So now you've heard the story of my old rig-a-doo
[02:18.93]It's good-bye and God be with you says old Johnny Dhu
