HE sent a bullet from the west,
And it struck johnny of the grey jacket
Like a sieve it bored him through;
Johnny Quirk was mourning. (3 times)

Like a sieve it bored him through;
And johnny Quirk was mourning.
He cocked the gun and fired it west,
It bored the jacket like a sieve ;
And poor Caley was rnourning. (3 times)

It bored the jacket like a sieve
And poor Caley was mourning.
