Pulled me in because
B
F#
of what Ar thur McBride
As we went a -walkin'
G#m
down by the seaside
F#
No mark what follows what they betide
G#m
For it be an old Christmas morning
F#
Good morning, good morning,
B
F#
the sergeant did cry
G#m
gentlemen, we replied
F#
Intended no harm, but meant to pass by
B
F#
G#m
For it'd be an old Christmas morning
F#
And a soldier, he always is decent and clean
B
F#
In the finest of clothing
G#m
F#
he's constantly seen
While other poor fellows
look dirty and mean
B
F#
B
And sup off and gruel in the morning
F#
B
Says Arthur, I wouldn't be
F#
proud of your clothes
B
F#
For you've only a lend of them,
F#
And you dare not change
for one night that you know
B
F#
If you do, you'll be flogged
G#m
F#
in the mornin'
B
F#
And although that we are single and free
B
F#
We take great delight in
F#
And we have no desire,
B
F#
strange faces to see
B
Although that your offer
F#
G#m
F#
s are charming
Oh no, says the sergeant,
I'll have no such chat
B
F#
And I neither will take it from
G#m
F#
Spalk ing nor Bratton
B
F#
For if you insult me with one other word
B
F#
G#m
I'll cut off your head in the morning
F#
And then Ar thur and I,
we soon drew our odds
B
F#
And we scarce gave them time
G#m
to turn all the wrong blades
F#
When a trusty chalet lay over their heads
B
F#
G#m
And bade them take that as fair warning
F#
And they were all rusty rapiers
hung by their sides
And we flung them as far as
G#m
we could in the tide
F#
Now take them out devils,
B
F#
cried Arthur McBride
B
F#
G#m
And temper their edge in the mornin'
F#
And the little wee drummer
we flattened his pouch
And we made a football
of his rowdy dow -dow
And threw it in the tide
for to rock and to roll
G#m
F#
B
F#
And bid him a tedious returnin'
Oh me and me cousin
what are the McBride
B
F#
G#m
As we went walking down by the seaside
F#
Now mark what follows, what the betide
B
F#
G#m
For it bein' a Christmas morn in'
F#
