Standard (EADGBE)

It's a tinker I am, and a travellin' man

 I follow the wind and the stars

If I've shoes on me feet,and an old crust to eat

 I'm as happy as any by far

I'm as rich as a king when I lay down to dream

 On My pillow of sawdust or hay

And the friends that I make I would never forsake

 And their kindness one day I'll repay

Chorus

 So thank you for sharing the warmth of your fire

 And an 'oul cup of tea or two

And that warm feather bed,where I lay down my head

 for making me welcome,thank you.

I'm a jack of all trades,and as sharp as a blade

When it comes to the markets and fairs

 Mending 'oul pots and pans or whatever I can

Not a penny I'd give for your cares

Chorus

Bridge

 Now the cold winds of winter can cut like a knife

 And the rain chills me deep to the bone

 But the warm summer breezes still blow in my mind

 And it's them keeps me carryin' on

When the cock crows the dawn,I'll be already gone

Through the meadow that runs by the trees

I think nothing of time,for the world is all mine

I can come and can go as I please

Repeat Chorus Twice
