Em
I'll tell ye a story that happened to me
D
One day as I went out to Youghal by the Sea
Em G D
The sun it was bright and the day it was warm
Em D Em D Em
Says I, A quiet pint wouldn't do me no harm
Em
I went to the barman, I says give me a stout
D
Says the barman, I'm sorry all the beer is sold out
Em G D
Try whiskey or vodka, ten years in the wood
Em D Em D Em
Says I, I'll try cider, I heard that it's good
[Chorus]
Em
Oh never, oh never, oh never again
D
If I live to a hundred or a hundred and ten
Em G D
I fell to the ground and I couldn't get up
Em D Em D Em
After drinking a pint of the Johnny Jump Up
Em
After lowering the third I headed straight for the yard
D
Where I bumped into Brophy the big civic guard
Em G D
He says come here to me boy, don't you know I'm the law
Em D Em D Em
Well I upped with my fist and I shattered his jaw
Em
He fell to the ground with his knees crumpled up
D
But it wasn't I hit him, t'was the Johnny Jump Up
Em G D
And the next thing I met down in Youghal by the Sea
Em D Em D Em
Was a cripple on crutches, and says he to me
Em
I'm afraid o' me life I'll be hit by a car
D
Would you help me across to the Railwayman's Bar
Em G D
And after three pints of the cider so sweet
Em D Em D Em
He threw down his crutches and he danced on his feet
[Chorus]
Em
Oh never, oh never, oh never again
D
If I live to a hundred or a hundred and ten
Em G D
I fell to the ground and I couldn't get up
Em D Em D Em
After drinking a pint of the Johnny Jump Up
Em
Now I went up the Lee road a friend for to see
D
They call it the Madhouse in Cork by the Lee
Em G D
But when I got up there, the truth I do tell
Em D Em D Em
They had the poor bugger locked up in his cell
Em
Says the guard testing him, say these words if you can
D
'Around the rugged rocks the ragged rascal ran'
Em G D
Tell them I'm not crazy, tell them I'm not mad
Em D Em D Em
T'was only six pints of that cider I had
Em
Now a man died in the Union by the name of Mcnabb
D
They washed him and laid him outside on a slab
Em G D
And after the parlors measurements did take
Em D Em D Em
His wife took him home to a bloody fine wake
Em
'Twas about twelve o'clock and the beer it was high
D
The corpse he sat up and he says with a sigh
Em G D
I can't get to heaven, they won't let me up
Em D Em D Em
Till I bring them a pint of the Johnny Jump Up
[Chorus]
Em
Oh never, oh never, oh never again
D
If I live to a hundred or a hundred and ten
Em G D
I fell to the ground and I couldn't get up
Em D Em D Em
After drinking a pint of the Johnny Jump Up
Em
Oh never, oh never, oh never again
D
If I live to a hundred or a hundred and ten
Em G D
I fell to the ground and I couldn't get up
Em D Em D Em
After drinking a pint of the Johnny Jump Up
