Verse 1
Em A Em Come all you bold sportsmen and listen to my story D Em It’s about noble Stewball that gallant racing pony G D Arthur Marble was the man that first brought Stewball here G A For to run with Miss Griesel on the Plains of Kildare.
Verse 2
Em A Em O the fame of his actions we’ve heard of before D Em But now he is challenged by young Mrs. Gore G D For to run with Miss Griesel that handsome grey mare G A For ten thousand gold guineas on the Plains of Kildare.
Verse 3
Em A Em And the cattle they were brought out with saddle whip and bridle D Em And the gentlemen did shout at the sight of the gallant riders G D And in viewing the cattle just as they came there G A O they all laid their money on the Monaghan grey mare.
Verse 4
Em A Em And the order it was given and away they did fly D Em Stewball like an arrow the grey mare passed by G D And if you had’ve been there for to see them going round G A You’d’ve thought to your heart their feet ne’er touched the ground.
Verse 5
Em A Em And when at last they came to half way round the course D Em Stewball and his rider began to discourse G D Says Stewball to the rider “Can you tell to me G A How far is that grey mare this moment from me.”
Verse 6
Em A Em Says the rider to Stewball “You run in great style D Em You’re ahead of the grey mare almost half a mile G D And if you keep your running I vow and I swear G A That you never will be beaten by the Monaghan grey mare.”
Verse 7
Em A Em The last winning post, Stewball passed it quite handy D Em Horse and rider both called for sherry wine and brandy G D And they drank up a health to the noble grey mare G A For she emptied their pockets on the Plains of Kildare.
