Fie, Man, Fie


Says Martin to his man,
Fie, man, fie!
Says Martin to his man,
Who's the fool now?
Says Martin to his man,
"Drink that if thou can!"
Thou art well-drunken, man.
Who's the fool now?

Saw the man in the moon!
Fie, man, fie!
Saw the man in the moon!
Who's the fool now?
Saw the man in the moon,
Swinging in St. Brigid's loom!
Thou art well-drunken, man.
Who's the fool now?

Saw the hare chase the hound!
Fie, man, fie!
Saw the hare chase the hound!
Who's the fool now?
Saw the hare chase the hound,
Thirty feet off the ground!
Thou art well-drunken, man.
Who's the fool now?

Saw the mouse chase the cat!
Fie, man, fie!
Saw the mouse chase the cat!
Who's the fool now?
Saw the mouse chase the cat,
And the cheese eat the rat!
Thou art well-drunken, man.
Who's the fool now?

Saw a maid milk a bull!
Fie, man, fie!
Saw a maid milk a bull!
Who's the fool now?
Saw a maid milk a bull,
Damn near got a bucket full!
Thou art well-drunken, man.
Who's the fool now?
