I am a rambling Irishman

In Ulster I was born and

Many's the pleasant day I spent

'Round the shores of sweet Loch Erne

But to be poor I could not endure

Like others of my station

To Amerikay I sailed away

And left this Irish nation

Rantin-de-na, tan-tin-de-na

Right antin-de-na in denandy

Rantin-de-na, tan-tin-de-na

Right antin-de-na in denandy

The night before he went away

I spent it with my darling

Three o'clock in the afternoon

'Til the break of day next morning

But when that we were going to part

We lay in each other's arms

To Amerikay he soon set sail

A journey with no charms

And when we reached the other side

We were both stout and healthy

We dropped the anchor in the bay

Going down to Philadelphi-ay

So let every lass drink to her lad

In blue jacket and white trousers

And let every lad drink to his lass

And take them as life spouses

I am a rambling Irishman

In Ulster I was born and

Many's the pleasant day I spent

'Round the shores of sweet Loch Erne

But to be poor I could not endure

Like others of my station

To Amerikay I sailed away

And left this Irish nation
