There's a s^Gad tale I'll tell you of a s^Dailor man's life How his l^Gove for the high seas would co^Dst him a w^Emife When I've t^Gold you my story I'm s^Dure you'll agree It's n^Got but pure folly when a m^Dan goes to s^Emea

Just a y^Goung lad of twenty I was co^Durting a lass Full of i^Gnnocent beauty with st^Dyle and with c^Emlass But the s^Ghips in the harbor they b^Deckoned it seemed I was l^Gured by the trade winds to f^Dind fiddler's g^Emreen

When f^Girst I went sailing how a yo^Dung girl did cry But the l^Gure of the trade winds could n^Dot be deni^Emed And though she v^Gowed to be faithful as my sh^Dip sailed away She would m^Garry another one y^Dear from that ^Emday

Y^Go ho h^Co, fi^Gddler's g^Dreen Bew^Gitching young sailors with a^Cll of your d^Dreams Y^Go ho h^Co, she's c^Galm and ser^Dene Ench^Emantment awaits you on f^Diddler's g^Emreen

Well I've s^Gailed many oceans since I l^Deft Boston town And my h^Gair has turned silver that was ^Donce chestnut b^Emrown And from L^Gondon to Bombay and po^Drts in between I was ^Galways in search of this f^Diddler's gr^Emeen

And to you y^Goung lads now courting pretty m^Daidens so fair Should you h^Gear those trade winds let me w^Darn you be^Emware Go m^Garry your young girl, as your c^Dorn and your beans Don't w^Gaste your young manhood on f^Diddler's gr^Emeen

Y^Go ho h^Co, fi^Gddler's g^Dreen Bew^Gitching young sailors with a^Cll of your d^Dreams Y^Go ho h^Co, she's c^Galm and ser^Dene Ench^Emantment awaits you on f^Diddler's g^Emreen
