I'm A Man You Don't Meet Every Day

To The Air, Believe Me If All Those Endearing Young Charms

Oh, my name is John Steward,
I'm a canny gaun more,
And a roving young fellow I've been.

So be easy and free,
When you're drinking 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 shilling to spare.

Well, I took out my dog,
And with him I did shoot,
All down in the County Kildare.

So come fill up your glasses,
With brandy and wine,
Whatever the cost, I will pay.

Oh, my name is John Steward,
I'm a canny gaun more,
And a roving young fellow I've been.
