SAYS MY AUL' ONE TO YOUR AUL' ONE
"WILL YE COME TO THE WAXIE'S DARGLE?"
SAYS YOUR AUL' ONE TO MY AUL' ONE
"SURE I HAVEN'T GOT A FARTHIN;
I WENT UP TO MONTO TOWN
TO SEE YOUNG KILL MCARDLE
BUT HE WOULDN'T GIVE ME HALF A CROWN
TO GO TO THE WAXIE'S DARGLE
WHAT'LL YA HAVE?
I'LL HAVE A PINT.
I'LL HAVE A PINT WITH YOU SIR.
AND... IF ONE OF US DOESN'T ORDER SOON,
WE'LL BE KICKED 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' LADS' BRACES
I WENT DOWN TO CAPEL STREET
TO THE OLD MAN MONEY LENDER
BUT HE WOULDN'T GIVE ME A COUPLE OF BOB
FOR THE OLD FELLAS SUSPENDERS.
CHORUS
SAYS MY AUL' ONE TO YOUR AUL' ONE
"WE HAVE NO BEEF OR MUTTON
BUT IF WE GO TO MONTO TOWN
WE MIGHT GET A DRINK FOR NOTHIN'
HERE'S A NICE PIECE OF GOOD ADVISE
I GOT FROM AN AUL' FISHMONGER:
WHEN FOOD IS SCARCE
AND YOU SEE THE HEARSE
YOU'LL KNOW YOU DIED OF HUNGER
CHORUS
