Gulliver Lyr Req: Johnny Daddle Dum (12) RE: Lyr Req: Johnny Daddle Dum 29 Sep 09


Those lyrics are very similar to the version I learned from Jem ("Bones") Kelly in Dublin about the same time, the only difference being that instead of

I haven't got a crabfish as you can see
But I has a lobster I will sell to ye. Cho.

he sang

He threw the crab over his own back bone
Hopped on his horse and he f****d off home

Jem liked to shock!
