anne briggs - sullivan's john كلمات أغنية

sullivan’s john, to the road you’ve gone
far away from your native home
you’ve gone with a tinker’s daughter
for along the road to roam

sullivan’s john, you won’t stick it long
your belly will soon get slack
you’ll be roaming the road with a mighty load
and a tooten box on your back

i met katy coffey, she’d her neat baby
tossed behind on her back strapped on
she’d an old ash plant all in her hand
to drive her donkey along

enquiring at every farmer’s house
that along the road she passed
oh it’s where would she get an old pot to mend?
or where would she swap an ass?

i heard of a fair in the county clare
at a place call spancil hill
where my brother james got a rap of the hames
poor paddy they tried to k!ll

they loaded him up on an ass and cart
while pat and mary looked on
oh, bad luck to the day that i went away
to join a tinker’s band
sullivan’s john, to the road you’ve gone
far away from your native home
you’ve gone with a tinker’s daughter
for along the road to roam

sullivan’s john, you won’t stick it long
your belly will soon get slack
you’ll be roaming the road with a mighty load
and a tooten box on your back
