Irish Song Lyrics

The Shady Lane 
While walking down the shady lane on a door I chanced to knock Have you any rusty pots and pans with dirty holes to block Oh, indeed I have, don't you know I have To me rye-ful doodle daddy, oh indeed I have. 
The lady she came to the door and asked me to come in "You're welcome, jolly tinker, and I hope you brought your tins," Oh indeed I did, don't you know I did To me rye-ful doodle daddy, oh indeed I did. 
She took me up the wooden stairs to show me what to do She fell on the feathery bed and I fell on it, too Oh indeed I did, don't you know I did To me rye-ful doodle daddy, oh indeed I did. 
She lifted up the frying pan and she began to knock To let the servants know, my lads, that I was on the job Oh indeed she did, don't you know she did To me rye-ful doodle daddy, oh indeed she did. 
She put her hand into her pocket and she pulled out a gold watch "Take this me jolly tinker, for bejabers you're no botch," Oh indeed you're not, don't you know you're not To me rye-ful doodle daddy, oh indeed you're not. 
She put her hand into her pocket and she pulled out twenty pounds "Take this me jolly tinker, and we'll have another round," Oh indeed we will, don't you know we will To me rye-ful doodle daddy, oh indeed we will. 
Well, I've been a jolly tinker now for twenty years or more But such a rusty hole as that I never blocked before Oh indeed I didn't, don't you know I didn't To me rye-ful doodle daddy, oh indeed I didn't.
