Hi For The Beggar Man - The Clancy Brothers/Tommy Makem

作词：A Roche

作曲：A Roche

The night being dark and very cold

A woman took pity on a poor old soul

She took pity on a poor old soul

And asked him to come in

With a too-roo roo-roo rantin hi

A too-roo roo-roo rantin hi

Too-roo roo-roo rantin hi

And hi for the beggar man

He sat him down in a chimney nook

He hung his coat upon a hook

He hung his coat upon a hook

And merrily he did sing

With a too-roo roo-roo rantin hi

A too-roo roo-roo rantin hi

Too-roo roo-roo rantin hi

And hi for the beggar man

In the middle of the night the old woman rose

She missed the beggarman and all his clothes

She clapped and clapped and clapped again

Says he has me daughter gone

With a too-roo roo-roo rantin hi

A too-roo roo-roo rantin hi

Too-roo roo-roo rantin hi

And hi for the beggar man

Three long years have passed and gone

When this old man came back again

Asking for a charity

Would you lodge a 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 a too-roo roo-roo rantin hi

A too-roo roo-roo rantin hi

Too-roo roo-roo rantin hi

And hi 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

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 beggarman

With a too-roo roo-roo rantin hi

A too-roo roo-roo rantin hi

Too-roo roo-roo rantin hi

And hi for the beggar man
