On George’s Quay I first began and there became a porter
Me and my master soon fell out which cut my acquaintance shorter
In Sackville Street a pastry cook – in James’ Street a baker
In Cook Street I did coffins make – in Eustace Street a preacher.
Chorus
In Baggot Street I drove a cab and there was well required
In Frances Street had lodging beds to entertain all strangers
For Dublin is in high renown, or I am much mistaken
In Kevin Street I do declare, sold butter, eggs and bacon.
Chorus
In Golden Lane I sold old shoes – in Meath Street was a grinder
In Barrack Street I lost my wife, I’m glad I ne’er could find her
In Mary’s Lane I’ve dyed old clothes of which I’ve often boasted
In that noted place Exchequer Street sold mutton ready roasted.
Chorus
In Temple Bar I dressed old hats – in Thomas Street a sawyer
In Pill Lane I sold the plate – in Green Street an honest lawyer
In Plunkett Street I sold cast clothes – in Bride’s Alley a broker
In Charles Street I had a shop, sold shovel, thongs and poker.
Chorus
In College Green a banker was – and in Smithfield a drover
In Britain Street a waiter and in George’s Street a glover
On Ormond Quay I sold old books – in King’s Street a nailer
In Townsend Street a carpenter – and in Ringsend a sailor.
Chorus
In Cole’s Lane a jobbing butcher – in Dame Street a tailor
In Moore Street a chandler and on the Coombe a weaver
In Church Street I sold old ropes – on Redmond’s Hill a draper
In Mary Street sold ‘bacco pipes – in Bishop Street a quaker.
Chorus
In Peter Street I was a quack – in Greek street a grainer
On the harbour I did carry sacks, in Werburgh Street a glazier
In Mud Island was a dairy boy where I became a scooper
In Capel Street a barber’s clerk – in Abbey Street a cooper.
Chorus
In Liffey street had furniture with fleas and bugs I sold it
And at the bank a big placard I often stood to hold it
In New Street I sold hay and straw and in Spitalfields made bacon
In Fishamble Street was at the grand old trade of basketmaking.
Chorus
In Summerhill a coachmaker – in Denzille Street a gilder
In Cork Street was a tanner – in Brunswick Street a builder,
In High Street I sold hosiery – in Patrick Street sold all blades
So if you wish to know my name, they call me Jack of all trades.
