Danny Farrell Pete St.John 4/4
Welliers are Wellington Boots,
Gurrier is a blackguard or bad person,
Amadan is Irish for a fool,
Tinkers are members of the travelling people.
C
I knew Danny Farrell when his football was a can.
C G
With his hand-me-down's and Welliers and sandwiches of bran
C F C
But now this pavement peasent is a full grown bitter man,
C G G7 C
With all his trials and troubles of this travelling people's clan
[Chorus]
C
He's a looser, a boozer,a me and you user,
G G7
A rader, a trader, a people police hater,
C
So lonely and only, what you'd call a gurrier,
G G7 C
Still now,Danny Farrell, he's a man.
C
[2] I knew Danny Farrell when he joined the National School,
C G
He was lousy at the Gaelic, we_called_him amadan- a fool
C F C
He was brilliant at the toss_school_or_trading objects in the pawn
C G G7 C
By the time he was an adult all his charming ways were gone.
[Chorus]
C
He's a looser, a boozer,a me and you user,
G G7
A rader, a trader, a people police hater,
C
So lonely and only, what you'd call a gurrier,
G G7 C
Still now,Danny Farrell, he's a man.
C
[3] I knew Danny Farrell when he queued up for the dole,
C G
And he tried to hide his loss_of_pride, that eats away the soul,
C F C
But mending pots and kettles,is a trade lost in the past.
C G G7 C
There's no handout's here for tinkers was the answer when he asked.
[Chorus]
C
He's a looser, a boozer,a me and you user,
G G7
A rader, a trader, a people police hater,
C
So lonely and only, what you'd call a gurrier,
G G7 C
Still now,Danny Farrell, he's a man.
C
[4] I still know Danny Farrell,saw him just there yesterday,
C G
Drinking methylated spirits,with some winos on the quay,
C F C
Now he's fourty, going on eighty,with his eyes of hope bereft,
C G G7 C
And he told me this for certain,there's not many of us left,
[Chorus]
C
He's a looser, a boozer,a me and you user,
G G7
A rader, a trader, a people police hater,
C
So lonely and only, what you'd call a gurrier,
G G7 C
Still now,Danny Farrell, he's a man.
