At the year of our Lord, _ _ [F]
1806, [C] we set sail from the coal [G]-caved harbour. _
[C] We were sailing away with the [F] cargo of bricks [C] for the grand [G] city [C] of New York. _
We had a milling craft, [G] she with a rig, a bow and a half, [C] and Lord Hylton's rid with [G] her daughter.
[C] We had twenty-three masts, and she stood [F] several [C] blasts, and we'd go over the [G] isle in her [C]
Nova.
_ Well there was Barney McGee from the banks [F] of the Lee, [C] there was Hogan from County [G]
Tyrone.
And [C] there was John D.
McGirt, who was [F] scared stiff of war, [C] had a chap [G] from with him [C] in Lowe.
Well there was Slugger O'Toole, [G] who was drunk as a roo, [C] and played in military, [G] he'd from _ Nova.
[C] And there Banning MacDann from the banks [F] of the Mann, [C] was the skipper of the Ivy [G] _
[C] Nova.

_ [C] _ We had sailed seven years when the [F] measles broke out, [C] and our ship lost its way [G] in the bog.
_ [C] And the whale of the crew was reduced [F] down to two, twice [C] beset, and the captain's our dog.
Well then the ship struck a [G] rock, oh Lord what a shock, [C] we nearly tumbled [G] _
over, [C] turned and turned around,
and the poor old [F] dog was drowned. _
[C] We're the last of the [G] Irish _ [C] rovers.
