Oh,
G
G

come all young men,
Am
Am

where 'er you be,
G
G

Am
Am

And listen to my lamentation.
Well, I courted a girl beyond compare,
G
G

Am
Am

And I loved her with admiration.
At length, in time, she became my wife,
E
E

T 'was not for beauty, but for riches.
G
G

And all the time it causes strife
D

E

to see which of us will wear the britches

Well Paddy Cain it is my name,
my height it is five foot eleven
And my wife she's nearly not so big,
she only measures four foot seven
The hedges I have often stripped,
G
G

E
E

I've left them bare of rods and switches
G
G

Her skin that's fair,
D
D

G
G

sure I've turned black,
D
D

E
E

Am
Am

but still she swears she'll wear my britches
I am a tailor to my trade,
at cutting out I am quite handy
But sure all the money that I make,
G
G

Am
Am

she lays it out on tay and brandy
Now sometimes I do shout and bawl,
G
G

there's nothing going but
E
E

rogues and witches
G

G
G

Her head goes often to the wall,
D
D

but still she swears she'd
E
E

Am
Am

wear my britches.
One morning at the tay,
G
G

Am
Am

and legs contented sitting by the fire,
Well, she blowed the tape off on me legs
and left me lapping to retire.
Now that I do shout and moan
G
G

E
E

as I go hopping on my crutches,
G

G
G

Well, I wish I'd broke my collarbone

The day I let her wear my breeches
So, come all you men, where 'er you be
G

Am
Am

Don't marry a wife if she's enchanting
A
A

Am
Am

For if you do, you'll end like me
G
G

Am
Am

With other men she'll go galanting
A

Am

Now, my advice it is to use
G
G

E

To marry for love and work for riches
G

And be sure of a wife with
D

an honest tongue
