Verse 1
Em
Good evening, all my jolly lads,
Em
If you'll gather all around me,
Em
For I've got a situation and
Em
I can whisper all the weekly
wage of nineteen bob
G
'Tis twelve months come October
Verse 2
G
since I left me native home
After helping them Killarney boys
Em
But now I wear the gansey and
Em
I'm the gaffer of the squad that
makes the hot asphalt
Verse 3
G
hollows
and we laid it in the flat
And if it doesn't last forever,
D
sure I swear, I'll eat me hat
Em
Well, I've wandered up and down
D
the world and sure I never felt
Em
Any surface that was equal
to the hot asphalt
Verse 4
Em
The other night a copper comes and he says to me,
Em
Would you kindly let me light me pipe
Em
And he planks himself right down in front,
D
with hobnails up, till late
Em
And says I, me decent man,
you'd better go and find your bait
Verse 5
down on you,
I'm up to all yer pranks
Don't I know you for a traitor
Em
Boys, I hit straight from the shoulder
Em
That I knocked him into the
boiler full of hot asphalt
Verse 6
G
hollows
and we laid it in the flat
And if it doesn't last forever,
D
sure I swear, I'll eat me hat
Em
Well, I've wandered up and down
D
the world and sure I never felt
Em
Any surface that was equal
to the hot asphalt
Verse 7
Em
We quickly dragged him out again
D
and we threw him in the tub
Em
And with soap and warm water
D
it hardened and it turned him hard as stone
Em
And with every other rub,
sure you could hear the copper groan
G
I'm thinking, says O'Reilly,
Verse 8
G
that he's lookin' like old Nick
And burn me if I am not inclined
D
it would be easier to boil him till he melts
Em
And to stir him nice and
easy in the hot asphalt
Verse 9
G
hollows
and we laid it in the flat
And if it doesn't last forever,
D
sure I swear, I'll eat me hat
Em
Well, I've wandered up and down
D
the world and sure I never felt
Em
Any surface that was equal
to the hot asphalt
Verse 10
Em
You may talk about yer sailor lads,
D
ballad singers and the rest
Em
Your shoemakers and your tailors
D
but we please the ladies best
Em
The only ones who know the way
D
their flinty hearts to melt
Em
Are the lads around the boiler
making hot asphalt
Verse 11
G
scrubbing,
sure I caught me death of cold
For scientific purposes,
Em
In the Kelvin grove museum, me boys,
Em
As a monument to the Irish,
making hot asphalt
Verse 12
G
hollows
and we laid it in the flat
And if it doesn't last forever,
D
sure I swear, I'll eat me hat
Em
Well, I've wandered up and down
the world and sure I never felt
Any surface that was equal to the hot asphalt
