    Rule,
    They went to John Benson who lived near the bog,
    And from that to Mick Scully that kept the bulldog,
    With me tareidilum, tareidilum, tareidilum, fol the dol de.
    They went to Mickey Farrell's and 'twas there that they found Paddy Feeney with the jug and the glass in his hand.
    They hauled him and dragged him out to the road,
    And brought him in to "Peadar Aireaks"be a hoult to the nose.
    With me tareidilum, tareidilum, tareidilum, fol the dol de.
    They stuffed him up the chimney with the book in his hand,
    Saying on your oath Feeney will you give Stenson any land,
    With me tareidilum, tareidilum, tareidilum, fol the dol de.
