the dubliners - the beggarman lyrics
the night been dark and very cold
a woman took pity on a poor auld soul
she took pity on a poor auld soul
and she asked him to come in
with me too roo roo roo rantin’ high
too roo roo roo rantin’ high
too roo roo roo rantin’ high
and it’s high for the beggar man
he sat him down in the chimney nook
he hung his coat upon a hook
hung his coat upon a hook
and merrily he did sing
with me too roo roo roo rantin’ high
too roo roo roo rantin’ high
too roo roo roo rantin’ high
and it’s high for the beggar man
in the middle of the night the auld one rose
she missed the beggar man and all his clothes
clapped and clapped and clapped again
says “he has me daughter gone.”
with me too roo roo roo rantin’ high
too roo roo roo rantin’ high
too roo roo roo rantin’ high
and it’s high for the beggar man
four long years have past and gone
when this old man came back again
asking for a charity
would she lodge your beggar man
“i never lodged any but the one
and with that one me daughter’s gone
with that one me daughter’s gone
so merrily you may gang.”
with me too roo roo roo rantin’ high
too roo roo roo rantin’ high
too roo roo roo rantin’ high
and it’s high for the beggar man
“would you like to see your daughter now
with two babies on her knee
with two babies on her knee
and another one coming on?”
with me too roo roo roo rantin’ high
too roo roo roo rantin’ high
too roo roo roo rantin’ high
and it’s high for the beggar man
“for yonder she sits and yonder she stands
the finest lady in all the land
servants there at her command
since she went with the beggar man.”
with me too roo roo roo rantin’ high
too roo roo roo rantin’ high
too roo roo roo rantin’ high
and it’s high for the beggar man
