        G              D           G         C

  Oh my name is Jock Stewart I'm a canny gun man

        G            D           G     D

  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 ....

  

  So come fill up your glasses of brandy and wine

  Whatever it costs I will pay

  

  So be easy ...

  

  Well I took out my dog and him I did shoot

  All down in the county Kildare

  

  So be easy ...

         I took the lyrics from the back of the album

         but the deep meaning of the song (if it has one)

         is still quite obscure to me. By the way ... what 

         does 'canny gun' mean?
