Tonart: D major
Verse 1
D
Well, up in the mountains
and down in the glens
The boilers are splashing
with Indian meal
From out of the scalps and the hovels
and dens
They follow the sound
of the bells as they peel
Indian meal, Indian meal,
Indian meal
Fightin' their way over Nexavel,
women and half -starvin' children
with elbows and fists
Stuffin' hodgepodge into can,
into noggin' and coughin'
and splutterin' back over the ditch
With bony old fingers on bony old pegs
They come with their tickets
Em

each day for the dregs
Gatherin' the yellow in
tins and in pans

Were all that was needed

Never be flutters, a dose of the scutters
If you don't cook it right
it'll give you the
Indian meal, Indian meal,
