[Verse 1]
'Twas down by Carterhaugh Father
Between the water and the wall
There I met with a wee, wee man
And he was the least that ever I saw
[Verse 2]
His legs were scarce a finger's length
And thick and nimble was his knee
Between his eyes a flea could go
Between his shoulders were inches three
[Verse 3]
His beard was long and white as a swan
His robe was neither green nor gray
He clapped his hands, down came the mist
And he sank and he's fainted clean away
[Verse 4]
He lifted up a stone six feet in height
And flung it farther than I could see
And though I'd been a giant born
I'd never had lifted it to my knee
[Verse 5]
Wee, wee man but thou art strong
Tell me where thy dwelling be
It's down beneath yon bonny green bower
Oh, you must come with me and see
[Verse 6]
His beard was long and white as a swan
His robe was neither green nor gray
He clapped his hands, down came the mist
And he sank and he's fainted clean away
[Verse 7]
We rode on and we sped on
Until we came to a bonny green hall
The roof was made of the beaten gold
And purest crystal was the floor
[Verse 8]
There were pipers playing on every stair
And ladies dancing in glistering green
He clapped his hands, down came the mist
And the man and the hall no more were seen
[Verse 9]
His beard was long and white as a swan
His robe was neither green nor gray
He clapped his hands, down came the mist
And he sank and he's fainted clean away
[Verse 10]
His beard was long and white as a swan
His robe was neither green nor gray
He clapped his hands, down came the mist
And he sank and he's fainted clean away
