Little Beggarman - Fiddler's Green

Lyrics
words to study

I am a little beggarman and beggin I have been

For three score years in this little isle of green

I'm known along the Liffey from the basin to the zoo

And I'm known by the name of the Bold Johnnie Dhu

My brother called "The Jolly Beggar" tripped over the plain

He comes unto the farmer's doors a lodging for a gain

Sometimes the farmers' daughter views him cheek and chin

And calls him a handsome man and takes him in

Of all trades a going sure the begging is the best

For when a man is tired he can sit down and rest

He begs for his dinner, he has nothing else to do

But to slip around the corner with his old rigadoo

I slept last night in a barn in Currabawn

T' was a shocking wet night but I slept until the dawn
