The Beggarman Gaelic Storm

Well I'm a little beggarman, I am a beggarman
I'm a little beggar-beggarman, I am a beggar man

Well I'm a little beggarman and begging I have been
For three score or more on the little isle of green
And I'm known from the Liffey from the basement to the zoo
And I'm known by the name of old Johnny Dhu

Of all the trades that's goin' the beggin' is the best
For when a man is tired he can sit down and rest
He can beg for his dinner, he's nothing else to do
Only comes around the corner with his old rig-a-doo

And I met a little flaxy-haired girl one day
"Well good morning little flaxy-haired girl," did I say
"Well good mornin' little beggarman, how do you do
With your rags and your bags and your old rig-a-doo."
I'll buy a pair of leggings and a collar and a tie
And a nice young lady I will fetch by and by
I'll buy a pair of goggles and I'll color them blue
And an old fashioned lady I will make of her too

I've got the sky
I've got the road
I've got the sky...
The world is my home
