Sam Hall - The Dubliners

Oh my name it is Sam Hall chimney sweep

Chimney sweep

Oh my name it is Sam Hall chimney sweep

Oh my name it is Sam Hall

And I've robbed both great

And small

And my neck will pay for all

When I die when I die

And my neck will pay for all when I die

I have twenty pounds in store

That's not all that's

Not all

I have twenty pounds in store that's not all

I have twenty pounds in store

And I'll rob for twenty

More

For the rich must help the poor so must I so must I

For the rich must help the poor so must I

Oh they took me to Cootehill in a cart in a cart

Oh they took me to Cootehill in a cart

Oh they took me to Cootehill

Where I stopped to make my

Will

Saying the best of friends must part so must I so

Must I

Saying the best of friends must part so must I

Up the ladder I did grope that's no joke that's no

Joke

Up the ladder I did grope that's no joke

Up the ladder I did grope

And the hangman pulled the

Rope

And ne'er a word I spoke

Tumbling down tumbling down

And ne'er a word I spoke tumbling down

Oh my name it is Sam Hall chimney sweep

Chimney sweep

Oh my name it is Sam Hall chimney sweep

Oh my name it is Sam Hall

And I've robbed both great

And small

And my neck will pay for all when I die when I die

And my neck will pay for all when I die
