D A7 Good-bye Mrs. Durkin, I’m sick
D and tired of workin’
A7 No more I’ll dig your prates, no
D longer I’ll be poor
A7 As sure as my name is Barney I’m
D off to Califarny
A7 Instead of diggin’ praties, I’ll be
D diggin’ lumps of gold. [Verse 1]
D A7 In the days that I was courtin’ I
D was never tired resortin’
A7 To the alehouse and the playhouse,
D and the other house besides
A7 But I told my brother Seamus I’ll
D be off now and grow famous
A7 And before that I return again I’ll
D roam the whole world wide. [Chorus]
D A7 Good-bye Mrs. Durkin, I’m sick
D and tired of workin’
A7 No more I’ll dig your prates, no
D longer I’ll be poor
A7 As sure as my name is Barney I’m
D off to Califarny
A7 Instead of diggin’ praties, I’ll be
D diggin’ lumps of gold.

[Verse 2]
D A7 Well I’ve courted girls in
D Blarney, in Antrim and Killarney
A7 In Dublin and in Kerry, down to the
D coves of Cork
A7 But I’m tired of all this pleasure
D so now I’ll take my leisure
A7 And the next time that you hear
D from me I’ll write you from New York. [Chorus]
D A7 Good-bye Mrs. Durkin, I’m sick
D and tired of workin’
A7 No more I’ll dig your prates, no
D longer I’ll be poor
A7 As sure as my name is Barney I’m
D off to Califarny
A7 Instead of diggin’ praties, I’ll be
D diggin’ lumps of gold. [Verse 3]
D A7 When I landed in America, I met a
D man named Burke
A7 He told me if I’d stay a while he’d
D surely find me work
A7 But work he didn’t find me, so
D there’s nothing here to bind me
A7 I’m off for San Francisco and
D Californi-yay. [Chorus]
D A7 Good-bye Mrs. Durkin, I’m sick
D and tired of workin’
A7 No more I’ll dig your prates, no
D longer I’ll be poor
A7 As sure as my name is Barney I’m
D off to Califarny
A7 Instead of diggin’ praties, I’ll be
D diggin’ lumps of gold. [Verse 4]
D A7 Well I’m now in San Francisco and
D me fortune it is made
A7 Me pockets loaded down with gold,
D I’ll throw away me spade
A7 I’ll go back to dear old Erin spend
D me fortune never carin’
A7 I’ll marry Queen Victori’, Mrs.
D Durkin for to spite. [Chorus]
D A7 So, it’s good-bye Mrs. Durkin,
D I’m sick and tired of workin’
A7 No more I’ll dig your prates, no
D longer I’ll be poor
A7 As sure as my name is Barney I’m
D off to Califarny
A7 Instead of diggin’ praties, I’ll be
D diggin’ lumps of gold.
