[Riff 1 throughout song]
From the clan of MacNab in Ameri-kay
My name is Matt, I'm the cat
How are y'all today?

To the jumping little children
And the kids I need to meet
Check out little homie with his funkalicious beat

Spinning time, spinning rhymes 
Is what I like to do
The crazy energy is like the JLC blue

Chris and Jay are on the mike and they're about to wail
Come all you lads and lassies 
And listen to this tale

D
A little story that happened to me
    G
One day as I was walking down the Yule By The Sea
    D
The sun was very bright, the day was very warm
 G
"***" I said "A guiness wouldn't do me any harm"

     D
So I slid into the bar and I called for a stout
     G
"I'm sorry" said the barman "The beer is soldout,
D
Take the whiskey thats ten years in the wood."
    G
"No thanks, I'll try the cider cause I hear that its good."

    D
But never, never, and never again
     G
If I live to one hundred, or one hundred and ten
      D
For I fell to the ground and I couldn'a get up
      G
After drinking just a quart of that Johnny Jump Up

D
Johnny Jump Up, Johnny Jump Up, Yeah
C
Johnny Jump Up, Johnny Jump Up, Yeah
G                               D
Johnny Jump Up, Johnny Jump Up, Yeah yeah

      D
After drinking quite a few of those I went into the yard
        G
Where I bumped into big Goofy, the crispy nasty guard
      D
"Come here to me boy, don't you know I am the law?"
  G
I upped with me fist, I shattered his jaw (Ooooh!)

   D
He fell to the ground with his knees doubled up
      G
And I ran, what a plan, before the sucker got up
  D
I knew that if he got me I'd be in the lock up
       G
But it wasn't me that hit him, it was the Johnny Jump Up


[Riff 2]


         D
Well the next thing I met down at Yule By The Sea
      G
Was a cripple on crutches and he says to me:
       D
"Young man, if you can, please listen for a minute,
  G
I got me a glass, there's nothing left in it"

     D
"I'm afraid of me life that I'll be hit by a car,
          G
Won't you help me cross the road to the bar?"
      D
After drinking just a quart of that cider so sweet
   G
He threw down his crutches, he danced in the street

   D 
Yeah, and never, never, and never again
     G
If I live to one hundred, or one hundred and ten
  D
I fell to the ground and I couldn'a get up
      G
After drinking just a quart of that Johnny Jump Up

D
Johnny Jump Up, Johnny Jump Up, Yeah
C
Johnny Jump Up, Johnny Jump Up, Yeah
G                               D
Johnny Jump Up, Johnny Jump Up, Yeah yeah


[Riff 3 Throughout]
Well, I went down to the Lee Road, a friend for to see
They call it the madhouse, in Cork By The Lee
But when I arrived, the truth I do tell,
They had the poor bugger locked up in the cell

[Riff 3 Throughout]
Said the guard, testing him, "Say these words if you can:"
'Around the rugged rock the ragged rascal ran.'"
"Tell them I'm not crazy, tell them I'm not mad,
It was only a sup of the bottle I had"


[Riff 2]


      D
A man died in the yule by the name of MacNab
     G
They washed him and laid him outside on the slab
    D
And Dr. O'Connor, his measurements to take
    G
His wife took him home to a bloody fine wake

 D
About 12 O'clock and the beer it was high
    G
The corpse sat up and it said with a sigh
   D
"I can't get to heaven, they won't let me up
      G
Til I take them a quart of that Johnny Jump Up"

  D
But never, never, and never again
     G 
If I live to one hundred, or one hundred and ten
      D
For I fell to the ground and I couldn'a get up
      G
After drinking just a quart of that Johnny Jump Up

D
Johnny Jump Up, Johnny Jump Up, Yeah
C
Johnny Jump Up, Johnny Jump Up, Yeah
G                               D
Johnny Jump Up, Johnny Jump Up, Yeah yeah

D
Johnny Jump Up, Johnny Jump Up, Yeah (never never)
C
Johnny Jump Up, Johnny Jump Up, Yeah (never never)
G                               D
Johnny Jump Up, Johnny Jump Up, Yeah yeah
(For I fell to the ground and I couldn'a get up)
(After drinking just a quart of that Johnny Jump Up)
