The Blind Fiddler |
| I lost my eyes in the blacksmith shop in the year of fifty-six |
| While dusting out a t-flange, which was out of fix |
| It bounded from the tongs, and there concealed my doom |
| I am a blind fiddler, and far from my home |
| I’ve been to San Francisco, I’ve been to Dr. Lane |
| He operated on one o' my eyes, but nothing could he gain |
| He told me that I’d never see, and it’s no use to mourn |
| I am a blind fiddler, and far from my home |
| I have a wife and three little ones dependin' now on me |
| To share all my troubles, whatever they may be |
| I hope that they’ll be careful, while I’m compelled to roam |
| I am a blind fiddler, and far from my home |
