Hand Me Down Me Petticoat - The Dubliners

Oh hand me down me petticoat

And hand me down me shawl

Oh hand me down me buttoned boots

For I’m off to the Linen Hall

A’ra he was a quare one

Fa de liddle yodle da

He was a quare one and I’ll tell you

If you go down to the Curragh Camp

Called in at number nine

You’ll see three squaddies standing there

Now the good-looking one is mine

A’ra he was a quare one

Fa de liddle yodle da

He was a quare one and I’ll tell you

Oh, me love has joined the army

All under a false name

Oh, he’s done me on me pension

And his ould wan is all to blame
