[Verse]
G D C G
It was down by Christ Church that I first met with Annie
Em C D
A neat little girl and not a bit shy
G D C G
She told me her father had come from Dungannon
Em C G C G
And would take her back home in the sweet bye and bye
[Chorus]
C G C G
And what's it to any man, whether or no
C G D
Whether I'm easy, or whether I'm true
C G C G
As I lifted her petticoat, easy and slow
Em C G C G
And I rolled back my sleeve to unbuckle her shoe
[Verse]
G D C G
Was first down Thomas Street, and then out by the Liffey
Em C D
The sun had gone down, and the evening grew dark
G D C G
Down by Kingsbridge, and then by Lord in a jiffy
Em C G C G
My arms were around her, beyond in the park
[Chorus]
C G
And what's it to any man, whether or no
C G D
Whether I'm easy, or whether I'm true
Em C G C G
As I lifted her petticoat, easy and slow
Em C G C G
And I rolled back my sleeve to unbuckle her shoe
[Verse]
G D C G
Oh, from city or country, a girl is a jewel
Em C D
And well built for grippin', as most of them are
G D C G
But any young man would be really a fool
Em C G C G
If he tries at the first time to go a bit far
[Chorus]
C G
And what's it to any man, whether or no
C G D
Whether I'm easy, or whether I'm true
