[Verse]
A E7 D C#m
It was down by Christchurch I first met with Annie
F#m D E
A neat little girl, oh, and not a bit shy
A E7 D C#m
She told me her father had come from Dungannon
F#m A D A
And he'd take her back in the sweet bye-and-bye
[Chorus]
D A A7
And what's it to any man, whether or no
D A E
Whether I'm easy or whether I'm true
D A C#m
As she lifted her petticoat, easy and slow
F#m A D A D A E
And I rolled up me sleeves for to buckle her shoe
[Verse]
A E7 D C#m
Now, in city or country, a girl is a jewel
F#m D E
And well built for gripping, the most of them are
A E7 D C#m
Ah, but any young fellow would sure be a fool
F#m A D A
If he tried it the first time, to go a bit far
[Chorus]
D A A7
And what's it to any man, whether or no
D A E
Whether I'm easy or whether I'm true
D A C#m
As she lifted her petticoat, easy and slow
F#m A D A D A E
And I rolled up me sleeves for to buckle her shoe
[Verse]
A E7 D C#m
We wandered by Thomas Street, down by the Liffey
F#m D E
The sun was long set and the evening grew dark
A E7 D C#m
And along Whiteman's Bridge, and by god, in a jiffy
F#m A D A
My arm was around her, out there in the park
[Chorus]
D A A7
And what's it to any man, whether or no
D A E
Whether I'm easy or whether I'm true
D A C#m
As she lifted her petticoat, easy and slow
F#m A D A D A E
And I rolled up me sleeves for to buckle her shoe
[Verse]
A E7 D C#m
So, if you chance for to go to the town of Dungannon
F#m D E
You may search till your eyeballs are empty and blind
A E7 D C#m
Be it sitting or walking or running or standing
F#m A D A
A girl like Annie you never will find
[Chorus]
D A A7
And what's it to any man, whether or no
D A E
Whether I'm easy or whether I'm true
D A C#m
As she lifted her petticoat, easy and slow
F#m A D A D A
And I rolled up me sleeves for to buckle her shoe
