T'was down by Christchurch That I first met with Annie
A gentle young maiden And not a bit shy
She told me her daddy Who came from Dungannon
Would take her back home In the sweet bye and bye
And what's it to any man Whether or no
Whether I'm easy Or whether I'm true
As she lifted her petticoat Easy and slow
And I tied up my sleeve For to buckle her shoe
If ever you go To the town of Dungannon
You may search 'till your eyes They are empty and blind
Be ya walkin' or runnin Or sittin' or standin'
A girl like Annie You never will find
And what's it to any man Whether or no
Whether I'm easy Or whether I'm true
As she lifted her petticoat Easy and slow
And I tied up my sleeve For to buckle her shoe
Down along Thomas Street Down to the Liffy
The sunshine was gone And the evening grew dark
Along by King's Bridge And b'God in a jiffy
Me arms were around her Beyond in the park
And what's it to any man Whether or no
Whether I'm easy Or whether I'm true
As she lifted her petticoat Easy and slow
And I tied up my sleeve For to buckle her shoe
And what's it to any man Whether or no
Whether I'm easy Or whether I'm true
As she lifted her petticoat Easy and slow
And I tied up my sleeve For to buckle her shoe
