GUEST,Barclay Lyr Req: Rozzin Box(J. Reilly)-tinkers tools? (6) Lyr Req: Rozzin Box(J. Reilly)-tinkers tools? 16 Nov 17


"Rozzin Box" is a fun song collected from the singing of Irish traveller John Reilly (The Bonny Green Tree, Topic 1978) The chorus contains a list of tools that tinkers carry: to me it sounds like

" With his rozzin box, itchy pole, his hammer knife and spoon, and his nipper, tipper, eltic and his soldering iron tool. " Itchy pole??? Eltic??   What are these?

Anyone have the complete lyrics?
