Says my oul wan to your oul wan
Will you come to the Waxies Dargle
Says your oul wan to my oul wan
Sure I haven't got a farthin'
I went down to Monto Town
To see young Kill McArdle
But he wouldn't give me a half a crown
To go to the Waxies Dargle
What will you have?
Will you have a pint?
I'll have a pint with you sir
And if one of you don't order soon
We'll be thrown out of the boozer
Says my aul one to your aul one
Will you come to the Galway Races
Says your aul one to my aul one
With the price of my aul lad's braces
I went down to Capel Street
To the Jew man money lenders
But they wouldn't give me a couple of bob
On me oul lad's red suspenders
What will you have?
Will you have a pint?
I'll have a pint with you sir
And if one of you don't order soon
We'll be thrown out of the boozer
Says my aul one to your aul one
We have no beef nor mutton
But if we go down to Monto Town
We might get a drink for nothin'
Here's a nice piece of advice
I got from an aul fishmonger
When food is scarce and you see the hearse
You know you've died of hunger
What will you have?
Will you have a pint?
I'll have a pint with you sir
And if one of you don't order soon
We'll be thrown out of the boozer
Says my oul wan to your oul wan
Will you come to the Waxies Dargle
Says your oul wan to my oul wan
Sure I haven't got a farthin'
I went down to Monto Town
To see young Kill McArdle
But he wouldn't give me a half a crown
To go to the Waxies Dargle
What will you have?
Will you have a pint?
I'll have a pint with you sir
And if one of you don't order soon
We'll be thrown out of the boozer |
