Muirshin Durkin |
| In the days when I was courtin' |
| I was seldom done resortin' |
| In the ale house and the playhouse |
| And many’s the house between |
| I told me brother Seamus |
| I’ll go off and get right famous |
| And when I come back home again |
| I’ll have seen the whole wide world |
| And it’s goodbye, Muirshin Durkin |
| I’m sick and tired of workin' |
| I’ll no more dig the praties |
| I’ll no longer be a fool |
| As sure as me name is Carney |
| I’ll go off to California |
| And instead of digging praties |
| I’ll be digging lumps of gold |
| Farewell to all the girls at home |
| I’m bound away across the foam |
| Off to seek me fortune |
| In far Amerikay |
| There’s silver there a-plenty |
| For the poor and for the gentry |
| And when I come back home again |
| I never more will say |
| Goodbye, Muirshin Durkin |
| I’m sick and tired of workin' |
| I’ll no more dig the praties |
| I’ll no longer be a fool |
| As sure as me name is Carney |
| I’ll go off to California |
| Where instead of diggin' praties |
| I’ll be digging lumps of gold |
| And goodbye, Muirshin Durkin |
| I’m sick and tired of workin' |
| I’ll no more dig the praties |
| I’ll no longer be a fool |
| As sure as me name is Carney |
| I’ll go off to California |
| Where instead of diggin' praties |
| I’ll be digging lumps of gold |
| Goodbye, Muirshin Durkin |
| I’m sick and tired of workin' |
| I’ll no more dig the praties |
| No more be a fool |
| As sure as me name is Carney |
| I’ll go off to California |
| Where instead of diggin' praties |
| I’ll be diggin' lumps of gold |
