Oh my name is Jock Stewart I'm a canny gun man
And a roving young fellow I've been
So be easy and free when you're drinking with me
I'm a man you don't meet every day

I'm a piper by trade, I'm a ramblin' young blade
And 'tis many the tune I can play
So be easy and free when you're drinking with me
I'm a man you don't meet every day

I have acres of land I have men at command
I have always a shilling to spare
So be easy and free when you're drinking with me
I'm a man you don't meet every day

So come fill up your glasses with brandy and wine
Whatever it costs I will pay
So be easy and free when you're drinking with me
I'm a man you don't meet every day

With my dog and my gun I go out for to shoot
All along the green banks o' the Spey
So be easy and free when you're drinking with me
I'm a man you don't meet every day

(alternatively as sung by the Pogues)
Well I took out my dog and him I did shoot
All down in the County Kildare
So be easy and free when you're drinking with me
I'm a man you don't meet every day

So come fill up your glasses with brandy and wine
Whatever it costs I will pay
So be easy and free when you're drinking with me
I'm a man you don't meet every day
So be easy and free when you're drinking with me
I'm a man you don't meet every day
