I am a little Beggarman and begging I have been
For three score’r more in this little Isle of green
I’m known from the Liffey down to Segue
And I’m known by the name of old Johnny Dhu
From all the trades that goin’ now sure beggin is the best
When a man gets tired he can sit down and rest
Beg for his dinner he has nothing else to do
And cut around the corner with his old Rigadoo
