Walking through the woods I came across a devily sight A man was dressed in green and I began to scream I felt my lungs begin to burst In his hand there was a purse Swinging back and forth When out for his hand He threw to me and said Sonny take this shiny coin Run along you’ll fine A pub that will get you primed Beers until you find Ghosts and goblins one Two Three four Five When I turned around That is when I found Had stuck it in my pocket A ran along to stock it When a ways on down the road Passed an angry toad I saw the pub without a name Walked on in a said my game I was here to have a beer The man in green is why I am here I drank and spit all me luck Down the hatch till my last buck Across the room I saw the man with the fiddle Wink and close his eye I looked around to try and find That man dressed in green He put a pipe in me hand sat down with a grin Gave me another pint Saying Sonny our night has just begun
