歌手名 The Clancy Brothers/Tommy Makem

作曲：Traditional

As I was sitting by the fire talking to old Reilly's daughter

Suddenly a thought came into my head

I'd like to marry old Reilly's daughter

Giddy I ae giddy I ae giddy I ae for the one-eyed Reilly

Giddy I ae try it on your old big drum

Reilly played on the big bass drum

Reilly had a mind for murder and slaughter

Reilly had a bright red glittering eye

And he kept that eye on his lovely daughter

Giddy I ae giddy I ae giddy I ae for the one-eyed Reilly

Giddy I ae try it on your old big drum

Her hair was black and her eyes were blue

The colonel and the major and the captain sought her

The sergeant and the private and the drummer-boy too

But they never had a chance with Reilly's daughter

Giddy I ae giddy I ae giddy I ae for the one-eyed Reilly

Giddy I ae try it on your old big drum

I got me a ring and a parson too

Ot me a scratch in a married quarter

Settled me down to a peaceful life

Happy as a king with Reilly's daughter

Giddy I ae giddy I ae giddy I ae for the one-eyed Reilly

Giddy I ae try it on your old big drum

Suddenly a footstep on the stairs

Who should it be but Reilly out for slaughter

With two pistols in his hands

Looking for the man that had married his daughter

Giddy I ae giddy I ae giddy I ae for the one-eyed Reilly

Giddy I ae try it on your old big drum

I caught old Reilly by the hair

Rammed his head in a pail of water

Fired his pistols into the air

A damned sight quicker than I married his daughter

Giddy I ae giddy I ae giddy I ae for the one-eyed Reilly

Giddy I ae try it on your old big drum
