frank harte - the twang man lyrics
[verse 1]
come listen to me story, ’tis about a nice young man
when the militia wasn’t wantin’, he dealt in hawkin’ tw+ng
well he loved a lovely maiden as fair as any midge
and she kept a traycle billy depot one side of the carlisle bridge
[verse 2]
now another one came a courtin’ her and his name was mickey baggs
he was a commercial traveller and he dealt in bones and rags
well, he took her out to sandymount for to see the waters roll
and he stolе the heart of the tw+ng man’s mot playin’ “billy in thе bowl”
[verse 3]
now when the tw+ng man heard of this he flew into a terrible rage
and he swore be the content of his tw+ng cart, on him he’d have revenge
so he lay in wait near to james’ gate and when poor old baggs came up
with his tw+ng knife, sure he took the life of the poor old gather ’em up
[verse 4]
and now ye have heard me story and i hope yous’ll be good men
and not go chasing the the tw+ng man’s mot nor any other oul’ hen
for they’ll leave you without a brass farthing, not even your old sack of rags
and you’ll end up in the gutter there, like poor old mickey baggs
