Tonart: D minor
Verse 1
Am
It was Sergeant Kilray of the Cabin Police
G
Was heard for to say crime's
on the increase
Am
On the worst of the lot for
breaking the law
you've got in Tullinaw
Am
Cattle they're driving, driving terrible
G
Wanting the whole of Isle and Arrable
Am
Mischief that soon it'd be irreparable
E
Am
If it's not squinched in Tullinaw
So Sergeant Kilray and Constable Flynn
G
Started away that night to begin
Am
Bringing a taste of order and law
E
Am
For man and for beast in Tullin' -a -ha
Oh, they lay by the wall
and they kept wide awake
G
Till they saw a man hauling
a cow to the lake
Am
Honest man, tell me now,
is that cow all your own?
E
Is it me own a cow that's
Sure she belongs to Whiddigarity,
G
Home I was drivin' her from Charity.
Am
Tell me, Sis' Flynn,
with some hilarity,
E
Am
Why are you comin' from Tullinagh?
So Sergeant Kilray was hurtful to say,
G
The case is suspicious in every way,
Am
And Flynn said he saw a breach of the law
E
In drivin' a cow from Tullinagh.
Am
Oh, the trial came on
and the prisoner swore
G
He was doing an able -y act no more
Am
For the cow's no use
and the widow that day
E
Had given him a bob to take it away
you've made no case of it
G
That is a lie, sir, on the face of it
Am
Per jury too, there's every
trace of it
E
Am
They'll miss you a while in Tullinah
And Sergeant Kilray and Constable Flynn
G
They made no delay in runnin' him in
Am
And there for a year he
sits in the straw
E
Lamentin' the grudges of
When they brought back the cows
as though with a cone
police'd leave people alone
Am
For if I could have proved
the old reptile was drowned
E
I'd have got compensation a
Instead of the money
to help father me
G
Here the old beast is back to
bother me
I'll know he'll mother me
E
Gettin' them took in Tullinagh
and Constable Flynn
G
They both of them grey and elderly men
Am
Still tell how they brought back
all their in -law
E
Am
Tis a different story in Tullinagh
