Landlord sell me a jug of wine, Ch: Tari tari tari tari, ta ta, The jug was cracked at the bottom, I, a merry boatman, I threw it, so that it tari ta ta, I, a merry boatman, I threw it, so that it splintered. And when I'd had me wine, Ch: Tari tari tari tari, ta ta, That landlord wouldn't let me go, I, a merry boatman, I hadn't any money for tari ta ta, I, a merry boatman, I hadn't any money for to pay. They then stripped me naked, Ch: Tari tari tari tari, ta ta, They threw me into the barn, I, a merry boatman, There from cold I couldn't tari ta ta, I, a merry boatman, There from cold I couldn't last. And as I lay there in that barn, Ch: Tari tari tari tari, ta ta, 'Twas then that I thought, I, a merry boatman, If I now got the landlord's tari ta ta, I, a merry boatman, If I now got the landlord's daughter. When I'd had the landlord's daughter, Ch: Tari tari tari tari, ta ta, How d'yer think she paid me? I, a merry boatman, She gave me two nice golden tari ta ta, I, a merry boatman, She gave me two nice golden crowns.
