AmEileen Og an' that the darlin's name is
GThrough the Barony her features they were famous
AmIf we loved her then who was there to blame us
For Emwasn't she the Pride oAmf Petravore?Em Am
AmBut her beauCty made us all so shy
EmNot a man couAmld look her in the eye
AmBoys, Oh boyCs, sure that's the reason why
We're inEm mournin' for the Pride oAmf PetravorEme Am
:EAmileen Og Cme heart is growin' grey,
EmEver since the day yAmou wandered far away
AmEileen Og therCe's good fish in the say,
EmBut there's none of them like the Pride Amof PetraEmvoreAm
AmFriday at the fair of Ballintubber
GEileen met McGrath the cattle jobber
AmI'd like to set me mark upon the robber
EmFor he stole away the Pride oAmf PetravorEme Am
AmHe never seemCed to see the girl at all
EmEven when she ogled hiAmm from underneath her shawl
AmLookin' big and masterfCul when she was lookin' small
EmMost provokin' for the Pride Amof PetravEmore Am
AmSo it went as 'twas in the beginning
GEileen Og was bent upon the winning
AmBig McGrath contentedly was grinning
EmBeing courted by the Pride oAmf PetraEmvore Am
AmSez he: "I know a girl that could knock you into fitCs"
EmAt that Eileen nearAmly lost her wits
AmThe upshot of the ructioCn was that now the robber sits
EmWith his arm around the Pride oAmf PetravoEmre Am
AmEileen Og Cme heart is growin' grey,
EmEver since the daAmy you wandered far away
AmEileen Og thereC's good fish in the say,
EmBut there's none of them like the Pride Amof PetrEmavorAme
AmBoys, Oh boys, with fate 'tis hard to grapple
GOf my eyes 'tis Eileen was the apple
AmNow to see her walkin' to the chapel
EmWith the hardest featured man Amin PetraEmvore Am
AmNow, boys, thisC is all I have to say:
EmWhen you do your couAmrtin' make no display
AmIf you want them to run aftCer you, just walk the other way
EmFor they're mostly like the Pride Amof PetraEmvore Am
AmEileen Og mCe heart is growin' grey,
EmEver since the daAmy you wandered far away
AmEileen Og thereC's good fish in the say,
EmBut there's none of them like the Pride Amof PetrEmavorAme
