Hob- Y - Derry-Dando

You sing the basic, I sing the solo
Hob-y-derri-dando
All about the clippership the "Marco Polo"
Can-y-gan-y-eto
She is rolling on the water
Jane,sweet Jane
I wish I was bound to the Old Man daughter

Refrain:
Jane, Jane come to the glen
To sing apraise to Shanny Vach Voin

Davy Davy comes from Nevin,
Hob-y-derri-dando
An' he has got a little engine,
Can-y-gan-y-eto
An' he thinks so much about it
Jane,sweet Jane
That he cannot do without it,

Refrain

Davy Davy had this engine,
Hob-y-derri-dando
She was puffin' an' a-blowin',
Can-y-gan-y-eto
An' accordin' to her power,
Jane,sweet Jane
She does fifty miles an hour.

Refrain

Davy Davy's sister Dinah,
Hob-y-derri-dando
Was a-workin' on the Blaina,
Can-y-gan-y-eto
But the manager he did sack her,
Jane,sweet Jane
'Cos she chewed his best terbacker.

Refrain

Davy Davy and Sailor Evan,
Hob-y-derri-dando
Caught a shark in the Reach 0' Nevin,
Can-y-gan-y-eto
All they axed for was a pie dish,
Jane,sweet Jane
For to wash them bits o'sharkfish.
