lirik lagu i’m a man you don’t meet every day – pogues
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 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 gl-sses
of 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
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

these are the lyrics as they appear on the rum, sodomy, & the lash insert

now, my name is jock stewart
i’m a canny gaun man
and a roving young fellow, i’ve been
so be easy and free
when you’re drinkin wi’ 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
now, i took out my gun
with my dog i did shoot
all down by the river kildare
i’m a piper by trade
and a roving young blade
and many a tune i do play
let us catch well the hours
and the minutes that fly
and we’ll share them together this day
so, come fill up your gl-sses
of brandy and wine
and whatever the cost, i will pay
the song is an irish narrative ballad that has been shortened to an aberdeenshire drinking song. it is essentially jeannie robertson’s version, slightly modified by archie fisher in the third verse so the dog doesn’t get shot. it is alternatively claimed by the singing stewarts to have been written for bell’s father
