[Verse 1]
I am a young fellow who's easy and bold
In Castletown Connors I'm very well known
In Newcastle West I spent many a note
With Kitty and Judy and Mary
My Father rebuked me for being such a rake
And for spending me time in such frolicsome ways
But I ne'er could forget the fair nature of Jane
Agus fágaimíd siúd mar atá sé
[Refrain]
Would you haiden-de-hoden-de-haiden-de-hey!
Skilla-williy-ai-falla-loola-ladum-du-whack-fol-the-day
Someone sat on me hat and I lost my week's pay
Before the first light of the morning
[Verse 2]
If I chance for to go to the town of Rathkeale
All the girls around me will flock on the square
And some bring me poteen and others sweet cakes
For to treat me unknown to their oul' ones
There's one from Askeaton, there's one from the Pike
And another from Arda, my heart has beguiled
Tho' being from the mountains her stockings, they're white
Agus fágaimíd siúd mar atá sé
