Oh, it could have been the Poacher

  Bb                C
Or Connemara Black

                             F
Just listen well to what the ladies say

    Bb                C
And bring old Brownie back

About the Lady Of The Lake?

Just listen well to what the ladies say

    Bb                C
And bring old Brownie back

         F
Come on, tie the damsels, two to the droppers

                   C
And tie old Kate McClaren to the point

        F
There's none so wise to the rise of the river

    Bb                  C
The Butcher's out there tonight

         F
Come on, tie the damsels, two to the droppers

All about the Grenadier?

                       F               Bb
It could have been the Teal and Green
