Verse 1
Em
Eighteen sixty nine
D
Em
being the date anf the year,
Those Waterloo sportsmen
D
and more did appear,
Em
For to gain the great prizes
and bear them awa',
D
Never counting on Ireland and
Em
Master McGrath.
Verse 2
Em
On the twelfth of November,
D
Em
that day of renown,
McGrath and his keeper
D
Em
they left Lurgan town,
A gale in the Channel,
it soon drove them o'er,
D
On the thirteenth they landed
Em
on England's fair shore.
Verse 3
Em
Oh well when they arrived there
D
Em
in big London Town,
Those great English sportsmen
D
Em
all gathered around,
And one of those gentlemen
standing nearby
D
said, 'Is that the great dog you call
Em
Master McGrath?'
Verse 4
Em
Oh well one of the gentlemen
D
Em
standing around,
Says, 'I don't care a damn for your
D
Em
Ir ish greyhound!'
And another he sneered
with a scornful 'Ha! Ha!
D
We'll soon humble the pride of
your Master McGrath.'
Em
Then
Verse 5
Lord Lurgan came forward and said,
D
'Gentlemen,
Em
If there's any amongst
D
Em
you has money to spend.
For your grand English nobles I don't care a straw,
D
Here's five thousand to one
Em
upon Master McGrath.'
Verse 6
Em
Oh, McGrath he looked up and he
D
Em
wagged his old tail.
Informing his lordship,
'Sure I know what you mean,
Don't fear, noble Brownlow,
don't fear them agra,
D
We'll soon tarnish their laurels', says
Em
Master McGrath.
Verse 7
Em
Oh well Rose stood uncovered,
D
Em
the great English pride,
Her master and keeper were
close by her side;
They let them away and the crowd cried,
'Hurrah!'
D
For the pride of all England
Em
and Master McGrath.
Verse 8
Em
Oh well Rose and the Master
they both ran along.
'I wonder', says Rose,
D
Em
'what took you from your home.
You should have stayed there
in your Irish domain,
D
And not come to gain laurels
Em
on Albion's plain.'
Verse 9
'Well, I know', says the Master,
D
'we have wild heather
Em
bogs
but, bedad, in old Ireland there's
good men and dogs.
Lead on, bold Britannia,
give none of your jaw,
D
Stuff that up your nostrils', says
Em
Master McGrath.
Verse 10
Em
Well the hare she led on just
D
Em
as swift as the wind
He was sometimes before her
and sometimes behind,
He jumped on her back and
held up his ould paw -
D
'Long live the Republic', says
Em
Master McGrath.
