lirik lagu frank harte - galbally farmer
[verse 1]
one evening of late, as i happened to stray
to the county tipperary i straight took my way
to dig the potatoes and work by the day
i did hire with the galbally farmer
i asked him how far we were bound for to go
for the night it was dark and the north wind did blow
i was hungry and tired and my spirits were low
for i got neither whiskey nor cordial
[verse 2]
this n~ggardly miser he mounted his steed
to the galbally mountains he posted with speed
and surely i thought that my poor heart would bleed
to be trudging behind this old naygure
when we came to his cottage i entеred it first;
it looked like a kеnnel or a ruined old church
says i to myself i am left in the lurch
in the house of old darby o’leary
[verse 3]
i well recollect it was michaelmas night
to a hearty fine supper he did me invite
a cup of sour milk that would physic a snipe
it would leave you the trotting disorder
his wet old potatoes would poison the cat
and the barn where my bed was swarmin’ with rats
’twas little i thought it would e’er be my lot
to lie in that hole until mornin’
[verse 4]
and by what he had said to me i understood
my bed in the barn it was not very good
for the blankets were made at the time of the flood
and the sheets and the quilt in proportion
it was on this old miser i looked with a frown
when he pulled out some straw for to make my shakedown
and i wished i had never seen galbally town
or the sky over darby o’leary
[verse 5]
now, i’ve worked in kilconnell, i’ve worked in kilmore
i’ve worked in knockaney and shanballymore
in pallas~a~knicker and solohodmore
with decent respectable farmers
i’ve worked in tipperary, the ragg and rosegreen
the mount of kilfeakle, the bridge of aileen
but such woeful starvation i’ve never yet seen
as i got from old darby o’leary
