[chordsandlyrics][D]Did you ever eat Col[D7]cannon
Made from [G]lovely pickled [Em]cream?
With the [C]flour and scallions [G]blended
Like a [Em]picture in a [C]dream
Did you [D]ever make a [D7]hole on top
To [G]hold the melting [Em]flake
Of the [C]creamy flav’ry [G]butter
That your [C]mother used to [D7]make
(chorus)
Yes you [G]did, so you [C]did
So did [G]he and so did [D7]I
And the [Bm]more I think a[G]bout it
Sure the [Em]nearer I’m to [C]cry
Oh [D]wasn’t it the [D7]happy days
When [G]troubles we had not
And our [C]mothers made Col[G]cannon
In the [D]little skillet [D(7)]pot[/chordsandlyrics]

Did you ever bring potato cake in a basket to the school
Tucked underneath your arm with your book, your slate and rule
And when teacher wasn’t looking sure a great big bite you’d take
Of the flowery flavoured buttered soft and sweet potato cake
Did you ever go a-courting as the evening sun went down
And the moon began a peeping from behind the Hill O’ Down
As you wandered down the boreen where the leprechaun was seen
And you whispered loving phrases to your little fair colleen
