The Merry Ploughboy
(traditional, arrang. J. Ferguson, 2019)
V1.
D A
Oh I am a merry ploughboy,
A7 D
and I plough the fields all day,
A A7
'till a sudden thought came to my mind,
G D
that I should run away.
Well I'm sick and tired of slavery,
since the day that I was born,
so I'm off to join the IRA,
and I'm off tomorrow morn.
Chorus:
D A
And I'm off to Dublin in the green, in the green,
A7 D
where the helmets glisten in the sun,
A A7
where the bayonets flash, and the rifles clash
G D
to the echo of a Thompson gun.
V2.
I'll leave aside my pick and spade,
and I'll leave aside my plough,
and I'll leave aside my old grey mare,
for no more I'll need them now.
And I'll leave aside my Mary-
she's the girl that I adore.
Well, I wonder if she'll think of me
when she hears the canons roar.
V3.
And when this war is over,
and dear old Ireland's free,
I'll take her to the church to wed
and a rebel's wife she'll be.
