Oh me [G] name is Jack [D] Stewart and I'm a [G] canny gun [C] man
And a [G] rovin' young [D] fellow I've [G] been [D]
So be easy and free when you're drinkin' with me
I'm a man you don't meet every day.
I have acres of land; I have men at command
I have always a shillin' to spare
So be easy and free when you're drinkin' with me
I'm a man you don't meet every day
So come fill up your glasses with brandy and wine
Whatever it costs I will pay
So be easy and free when you're drinkin' with me
I'm a man you don't meet every day
Well I took out my dog and him I did shoot
All down in the county Kildare
So be easy and free when you're drinkin' with me
I'm a man you don't meet every day
So come fill up your glasses with brandy and wine
Whatever it costs I will pay
So be easy and free when you're drinkin' with me
I'm a man you don't meet every day
*** I do it the way the Pogues do it. I have never heard another version. If you have, let me know ***
