THE ROAD TO CLADY

I am a country servant serving in Collon
In a place they call New Hamilton,
a grand old-fashioned town
‘Twas early in the morning at the hour of three
When I set off for Clady, the old grey mare and me

In the corner of the street, a bus I chanced to pass
And in the corner of the bus I spied a country lass
Says I, My pretty fair maid, come along with me
I’m going the road to Clady, the old grey mare and me

Cheeks as red as roses, eyes a bonny blue
Dancing, dancing pierce me through and through
She fairly won my fancy, stole away my heart
Jogging along to Clady on the sour milk cart

I asked her up beside me and on the cart she sat
I slipped an arm around her waist
and soon began to chat
The birds in the bushes sweetly they did sing
The blackbirds and the thrushes
how they made a forest ring

Well you’ve heard of lords and ladies
making love in shady bowers
And how they woo awhile
among the roses and the flowers
I'll never forget that morning. Cupid shot his dart
Jogging along to Clady on the sour milk cart
