  1. (continued from previous page)
    I always take my fiddle just to get a foot in there
    And when Im on the Booze my boys I dance the soldier's joy
    Then the waiters tell me wait until the clouds roll by.

    For I always have some trouble but the devil a hair I care
    Sure every child of Adams of misfortune had his share
    Tis oft times in his sermons Ive heard Father Doolan say
    That Solemn was simple in his own sweet way.
