Maggie don't
you know
Why it is
I have to go
They bind
me with the book and with the rock
Not for me
this waving flags
As a
child dressed in rags
Spent Sunday
morning's looking for the Son.
Now I don't
believe a word
Don't believe
a word today
No I don't
believe a word
Don't believe
a word they say
Johnny you
were always odd
Now you wave
good-bye to your native sod
Do you think
you'll ever find a cap to fit?
Who's going
to set you free?
You're a fool
if you can't see
What you looking
for you're looking with
No, don't believe
a word
Don't believe
a word today
No don't believe
a word
Don't believe
a word they say
Maggie my discontent
Is surely
Heaven sent
Heard the
Shandon Bell on the road to hell last night
Picked the
apple from the tree
Now the white
flag sets me free
And I'll dance
no more to another fiddlers tune.
And I don't
believe a word
Don't believe
a word today
No I don't
believe a word
Don't believe
a word they say:
