the mary wallopers - the turfman from ardee lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
for the sake of health i took a walk one morning in dundalk
i met a jolly turfman on the road as i did walk
a friendly conversation came between this man and me
and that’s how i came acquainted with the turfman from ardee

[verse 2]
we chatted very freely as we walked along the road
he said “me ass is tired and i’d like to shed me load
i’ve had no refreshments since i’ve left me home, you see
and i’m weary out the travelling” said the turfman from ardee

[verse 3]
said i “old man, your cart is worn, your ass is very old
it must be twenty summers since that animal was foaled”
“yoked in a cart and tramped around september, ‘forty+three
well he cantered from the midwife,” said the turfman from ardee

[verse 4]
“oh yes” he said “my cart is worn with tough old irish wood
it must have been in use since the day of noah’s flood
the axle hasn’t wanted grease in one year out of three
it’s a good old carrick axle” said the turfman from ardee

[verse 5]
well then i heard a female voice that i knew very well
politely asking this old man for his load of turf to sell
and then he shook me hand and he bowed respectfully
and i hoped to meet some future day with the turfman from ardee
