1. Bare legged Joe knows the curlew's cry He runs with the hare when the summer's nigh A tinker boy is fancy free In the quiet green hills of Sligo. 2. Don't wish someday that you could go With a bag on your back and a pace that's slow Leave your home in the city smoke With the tinkers to go roving. |
3. That tinker boy never went to school But you can tell he's no one's fool He knows how to fish and to lay a snare He can sing like a lark in the morning. 4. Think I'll leave and go with him Now that the summer is coming in Travel the road with the tinker band And a bare legged boy to lead me. |
