Tonart: D major
Verse 1
D
I was down by Rocket Corner,
one morning I did stray
I met another rebel lad
G
D
who this to me did say
I bear orders from the captain
G
D
to assemble at Drum Bar
But how are we to get there
without a motor car?
Oh Barney dear, be of good cheer,
A
D
I'll tell you what we'll do
The loyalists have plenty,
G
D
although we have but few
I'll wire to St. Ola
G
D
before we march so far
And we'll give the boys a jolly good ride
in Johnson's motorcar
Johnson got the wire,
he soon pulled on his shoes
He says, this case is urgent,
G
D
there is no time to lose
He wore a fancy castor hat
G
D
and on his breast a star
You could hear the ding -dong toot and fin
of Johnson's motorcar
When he reached the railing bridge
he met some rebels there
He knew the game was up with him
G
D
as at him they did stare
He says, I've got a permit
G
D
to travel here so far
You can keep your English permit,
we want your motor car
What will my loyal comrade say
A
D
when I get to Dumbo?
To say my car was commandeered
D
We'll give you a receipt for her,
G
D
signed by Captain Barr
Oh, an Ireland streeter,
then we'll see to Johnson's motor car
They put the car in motion,
A
D
they filled her to the brim
With guns and bayonets shining,
G
D
while Johnson he did grin
When Barney waved his shin -plane flag,
G
D
it shot up like a star
And the gift -tree cheers for liberty
and Johnson's motorcar
When the loyal crew,
they heard the news,
it grieved their hearts so sore.
They swore they'd have reprisals
G
D
before they would give o 'er.
In vain they searched through glentees,
While the IRA,
their flag displayed
A
D
on Johnson's motorcar.
