The Limerick Races The Wolfe Tones

I'm a simple Irish lad who's off to have some comfort
To satisfy my mind, to Limerick town I came, sir
Oh, what a lovely place and what a charming city
Where the boys are all so free and the girls are all so pretty

[Chorus]
Musha ma ring me do ma day, a ring ma do ma daddy, oh
Ring ma do ma day a whack fo the daddy, oh

It was on the first of May, I first began me rambles
And everything was there, both jaunting car and gambols
I looked upon the road, 'twas lined with smiling faces
Happy as can be as they're going to see the races

[Chorus]
Musha ma ring me do ma day, a ring ma do ma daddy, oh
Ring ma do ma day and a whack fo the daddy, oh

Oh, so then I had to walk and made me way to th'race, sir
And did I reach the coast where everything was gay, sir
I spied a wooden house and in the upper storey
A man struck up a tune one day called "Garryowen for Glory"

[Chorus]
Musha ma ring me do ma day, a ring ma do ma daddy, oh
Ring ma do ma day and a whack fo the daddy, oh
