Lyrics
1. I am the wee falorie* man
A rattling, roving Irishman,
I can do all that ever you can
For I am the wee falorie man.
2. I am a good old working man,
Each day I carry a wee tin can
A large penny bap* and a clipe* of ham
I am a good old working man.
*nbsp;
*falorie = lovable, but mischievous
*penny bap = bun/loaf of bread
*clipe = chunk
