[F] [G]
[C] In the ear of our Lord, headed high on the next six, he said,
Sail from the temple [G] of heart.
[C] We were sailing away for the [F] kind of a place, [C] for the proud [G] city hall in [C] New York.
Even though they were proud, that [G] was a record of [C] what work, how to train [G] and where to stroll and work.
[C] He'd come to teach, he'd asked, he said, serve [F] a [C] class.
They called him the [G] Irish [C]
Rubberman.
There was barging and keeping, but the fine son of the lady that was walking,
walked [G] down to teach on his own.
There [C] was the old handkerchief, he was scared to come along,
had a chat, [G] a mess of being [C] caught alone.
There was slaughter and a funeral, [G] there was a lot gathering.
[C] Fighting and chasing [G] for gold.
[C] And a kick out from the backs [F] of the [C] fam,
for the scrimmage of the [G] Irish [C]
Rubberman.
He had one in the backs of the best labourers,
chicken, cows [G] and snow.
[C] They had three handpills, for their [F] bloody cross-hills,
[C] four [G] in the [C] car of the croc.
He had five in the box, [G] six in the box,
[C] seven in the barrel [G] of a cork.
He [C] had him in sight, a bad [F] horse in sight,
[C] for the foot of the [G] Irish [C]
Rubberman.

Well he said, the ladies' words don't count,
I should wash this bed [G] in a bottle.
[C] I had no hold of the crew, but the news now was a tune.
He set off [G] the captain's [C] algar,
many ships knocked her [G] up, Lord what a shock.
[C] Then he turned [G] right over,
it's [C] for nine times around,
and the poor old dog [F] was drowned.
Two, three, [C] out!
The [G] Irish [C] Rubberman.
