In the Cdays when I was Gcourtin', I was seldom done reCsortin' In the ale house and the Gplayhouse, And many's the house betCween I told me brother GSeamus, I'll go off and get right Cfamous, And when I come backG home again, I'll have seen the whole wideC world
(choruse chords same as verse) And it's goodbye, Muirshin Durkin, I'm sick and tired of workin' I'll no more dig the praties, I'll no longer be a fool As sure as me name is Carney, I'll go off to California And instead of digging praties, I'll be digging lumps of gold Farewell to all the girls at home, I'm bound away across the foam Off to seek me fortune In far Amerikay There's silver there a-plenty, For the poor and for the gentry And when I come back home again, I never more will say, Goodbye, Muirshin Durkin, I'm sick and tired of workin' I'll no more dig the praties, I'll no longer be a fool As sure as me name is Carney, I'll go off to California Where instead of diggin' praties, I'll be digging lumps of gold And goodbye, Muirshin Durkin, I'm sick and tired of workin' I'll no more dig the praties, I'll no longer be a fool As sure as me name is Carney, I'll go off to California Where instead of diggin' praties, I'll be digging lumps of gold Goodbye, Muirshin Durkin, I'm sick and tired of workin' I'll no more dig the praties, No more be a fool As sure as me name is Carney, I'll go off to California Where instead of diggin' praties, I'll be diggin' lumps of gold
