friendship's sake.

There was nutmeg, cloves and berries,
E

and a crust that was nailed on with glue.
There were caraway seeds

sure it would work up a fine stomach ache

That would kill a man twice after eating
A

a slice of Miss Fogarty's Christmas cake
A
D
Miss Mulligan wanted to try it,

Ah, this cake was enough by the powers

Miss Fogarty, proud as a peacock
Kept smiling and blinking away

E
A
And spilt the homebrew in her tea.

Gillooly, she said, you're not eatin',
G

Try a little bit more for me's sake.

And a crust that was nailed
