Oh me [D]name is Pat Rainey, I'm a [A]travelling man
I'll mend your auld pots, I'll [D]make you a can
I'm prince among nomads, I'm [A]king of me clan
[A]Fol dol lol [G]lol dol dol [D]day
I [D]tramps down the road with me [A]horse and me dog
There's game in the fields and there's [D]turf in the bogs
I sing like a lark as a[A]long I do jog
[A]Fol dol lol [G]lol dol dol [D]day____ [A]
I camps by the river and I catches a fish
I've always got plenty to put in me dish
Me brogues and me shirt well I surely can stitch
Fol dol lol lol dol dol day
I grab hold of me pipes and I'll make for the town
Finds me a good seat and I'll sit me'self down
I squeeze on the bellows all the throng gathers round me
Fol dol lol lol dol dol day
I play 'Misses McClouds' and the 'Wind in the Gap'
And it pleases the crowd as they dance and they clap
And many's a bright shilling they throw in me cap for me
Fol dol lol lol dol dol day
Well I'm fond of the drink and I'm sure it's no crime
To sit down in the shebeen with comrades sublime
I dance till the morning, I'm no slave to time
Fol dol lol lol dol dol day
Well the housewife each night comes down from the farm
Her husband gets cold but I am quite warm
For here in me tent she'll come to no harm with me
Fol dol lol lol dol dol day
But when winter comes round for fear of the damp
I'll whistle the dog, down the road we will tramp
And that housewife will sigh when she sees we broke camp
All fol dol lol lol dol dol day
But when springtime comes round I'll pass back this way
Boil up me ol' billy and I'll have me some tea
I'll check if the buffer has one on the way for me
Fol dol lol lol dol dol day
For me name is Pat Rainey, I'm a travelling man
I'll mend your auld pots or I'll make you a can
I'm prince among nomads, I'm king of me clan
Fol dol lol lol dol dol day
Fol dol lol lol dol
Fol dol lol lol dol
Fol dol lol lol dol dol day
