Оn the Fourth of July, eighteen hundred and six

We set sail from the sweet Cove of Cork

[G] [D] [G]
For the Grand City Hall in New York
[G] [D]
'Twas an elegant craft rigged fore and aft
[G] [D]
And oh, how the wild wind drove her
[G] [Em] [C]
She could stand a great blast She had twenty seven masts
[G] [D] [G]
And they called her The Irish Rover
[G] [C]
We had one million bags of the best Sligo rags
[G] [D]
We had two million barrels of stone
[G] [C]
We had three million sides of old blind horses hides
[G] [D] [G] [G]
We had four million barrels of bones We had five million hogs
[D] [G] [D]
And six million dogs Seven million barrels of porter
[G] [Em] [C]
We had eight million bails of old nanny-goats' tails
[G] [D] [G]
In the hold of the Irish Rover
[G] [C]
There was awl Mickey Coote Who played hard on his flute
[G] [D] [G]
When the ladies lined up for a set He was tootin' with skill
C G D
For each sparkling quadrille Though the dancers were
G
fluther'd and bet
[G] [D]
With his smart witty talk He was cock of the walk
[G] [D]
And he rolled the dames under and over
G
They all knew at a glance
Em C G D G
When he took up his stance That he sailed in The Irish Rover
[G] [C]
There was Barney McGee From the banks of the Lee

Fighting Bill Treacy from Dover And your man, Mick MacCann

From the banks of the Bann Was the skipper of the Irish Rover
[G] [C]
We had sailed seven years When the measles broke out
[G] [D] [G]
And the ship lost its way in the fog And that whale of a crew
C G D G
Was reduced down to two Just myself and the Captain's old dog
[G] [D]
Then the ship struck a rock Оh Lord what a shock
[G] [D] [G]
The boat it flipped right over Turned nine times around
Em C G
And the poor old dog was drowned I'm the last
