Jolly Beggarman
Planxty
It's Aof a jolly beggarman came Dtripping o'er the Eplain
He Acame unto a Dfarmer's door a Alodging for to Egain
The Afarmer's daughter she came down and Dviewed him cheek and Echin
She Asays, He is a Dhandsome man. I Apray you take him Ein
We'llA go no more a roving, a Droving in the Enight
We'll Ago no more a Droving, let the Amoon shine so Ebright
We'll Ago no more a roving
He Awould not lie within the barn nor Dyet within the Ebyre
But Ahe would in the Dcorner lie down Aby the kitchen Efire
o Athen the beggar's bed was made of Dgood clean sheets and Ehay
And Adown beside the Dkitchen fire the Ajolly beggar Elay
We'llA go no more a roving, a Droving in the Enight
We'll Ago no more a Droving, let the Amoon shine so Ebright
We'll Ago no more a roving
The Afarmer's daughter she got up to Dbolt the kitchen Edoor
And Athere she saw the Dbeggar standing Anaked on the Efloor
He Atook the daughter in his arms and Dto the bed he Eran
Kind Asir, she says, be Deasy now, you'll Awaken our goodEman
We'llA go no more a roving, a Droving in the Enight
We'll Ago no more a Droving, let the Amoon shine so Ebright
We'll Ago no more a roving
Now Ayou are no beggar, you Dare some gentleEman
For Ayou have stolen my Dmaidenhead and AI am quite unEdone
I Aam no lord, I am no squire, of Dbeggars I be Eone
And Abeggars they be Drobbers all, so Ayou're quite unEdone
We'llA go no more a roving, a Droving in the Enight
We'll Ago no more a Droving, let the Amoon shine so Ebright
We'll Ago no more a roving
