For the sake of health I took a
C

walk one morning in the dawn
C
G
I met a jolly turfman on the road as I went on
C
A friendly conversation came
G
between this man and me
And that's how I came
acquainted with the
Turfman from
Ardee
We chatted very freely as
we jogged along the road
C
Says he, my ass is tired and
G
I'd like to sell my load
C
For I've had no refreshment
G
since I left my home, you see,
C
G
And I'm tired out of travelling,
says the turf man from
Ardee.
Says
I, my friend, your cart is worn,
your ass is very old,
C
It must be twenty summers
G
since the day that he was foaled.
C
I remember well when he was born,
C

Carrick axle, said the turf man from

Just then I heard a female voice
that I knew very well,
C
Politely asking this poor
G
man his load of turf to sell.
I shocked the steady old hand
C
of his and he bowed respectfully
G
C
And I hope I'll meet some
Turfman from
C
Ardee
