EASY AND SLOW -------------- 'T was down by Christ Church that I first met Annie A neat little girl and not a bit shy She told me her father who came from Dungannon Would take her back home In the sweet by and by Chorus And what's it to any man whether or no Whether it's easy or whether I'm true As I lifted her petticoat easy and slow And I tied up me sleeves for to buckle her shoe All along Thomas Street down to the Liffey The sunshine was gone and the vening grew dark Along by King's Bridge and begod in a jiffy Me arms were around her beyong in the park From city or country, a girl's a jewel And well known for gripping the most of them are But any young fella is really a fool If he tries at the first time to go a bit far And if ever you go to the town of Dungannon You can search till your eyeballs are empty or blind Be yeh lyin' or walkin' or sittin' or runnin' A girl like Annie, you never will find
