歌词
Jack Of All Trades - The Chieftains/Kevin Conneff
作曲:Traditional
I'm a roving jack
of many a trade
Of ev'ry trade
Of all trades
And if you wish
to know my name
They call me Jack
of All Trades
I'm a roving and a sporting blade
They call me Jack
of All Trades
I always take a great delight
In courting pretty fair maids
So when in Dubling I arrive
To look for a situation
You can always hear
them all say
He's the pride of
all the nation
On George's Quay
I first began
And there became a porter
But me and me master
soon fell out
Which cut our
acquaintance shorter
In Sackville Street
I was a pastry cook
In James' Street a baker
In Cook Street
I did coffins make
In Eustace Street a preacher
I'm a roving jack
of many a trade
Of ev'ry trade
Of all trades
And if you wish
to know my name
They call me Jack
of All Trades
In Baggot Street
I drove a cab
And there was
well respected
In Francis Street
I'd lodging beds
To entertain
all strangers
Now Dublintg
is of high renown
Or I am much mistaken
In Keving Street
I do declare
I sold butter
eggs and bacon
In Golden Lane
I sold old shoes
In Meath Street
was a grinder
In Barrack Street
I lost me wife
And I'm glad I ne'er did find her
In Mary's Lane
I dyed old clothes
Of which I've often boasted
And later in Exchequer Street
Sold mutton ready roasted
I'm a roving jack
of many a trade
Of ev'ry trade
Of all trades
And if you wish
to know my name
They call me Jack
of All Trades
