G                           C
Oh raise your glass to them smugglin’ men
     G                    D
From Middletown Keady and Crossmaglen

For you never will see their likes again
     G        C       D         G
Them whealin’ dealin’ smugglin’ men
 
[Verse 1]
G         C
CD radios mobile phones
G                 D
The convoy leaves the station
G                        C
Scouting the road in the dead of night
G          D        G
The border boys are smugglin’
G              C
Golden message from the front
G           D
No time for hesitating
G                C
Take the fire oh keep her lit
G           D       G
The customs men are wating
 
[Chorus]
G                           C

[Verse 2]
G                      C
Tobacco and tae in the early day
G                       D
And butter and pigs and cattle
G                            C
Putting your way against the customs man
G        D       G
It was a nightly battle
G                 C
Carrying fags and switching tags
G         D
It was an education
G                      C
For they’ve never seen university
G                D    G
They’re not your poor relation
 
[Chorus]
G                           C

[Verse 3]
G                 C
Frenzies were the next big craze
G                        D
For the safety conscious couple
         G          C
When the government legalise them
       G         D         G
And it burst the smugglers bubble
G             C
Tv high fives videos
G               D
Whiskey beer or wine
G                           C
They’re all the same in the smugglin’ game
    G          D       G
And things are looking fine
 
[Chorus]
G                           C

[Verse 4]
G                   C
Well every smuggler owns a tank
     G                D
Have once for law and order
     G                  C
Well theres more diesel than coolants
       G    D        G
Coming up across the border
G               C
Curtains ciders boxes
G                    D
Transits our highest vans
      G               C
We’ll improvise we’ll specialise
   G           D       G
In choking the customs man
 
[Chorus]
G                           C
