[Verse 1]
     Em                            Bm
When on the road to sweet Athy, hurroo hurroo

When on the road to sweet Athy, hurroo hurroo
     G              D
When on the road to sweet Athy
  Em                   Bm
A stick in the hand, a drop in the eye
  G       D      Em      Bm
A doleful damsel I heard cry
Em

Indeed your dancing days are done

You're a spineless, boneless, chickenless egg

You'll have to be put with the bowl to beg

From the Isle of Ceylon
