The Boxer
The O'Reillys And The Paddyhats
3:56Was rolling out one evening I came down too for long I walked into a dimmed pub And suddenly I saw Her cheeks, they were so rosy And golden was her hair She had to be an Irish girl She looks so goddamn fair She took me by her lovely hand and whispered in my ear "I'll guide you up to heaven if you order me a beer" Seconds later I found myself beside this pretty lass A wanting thought in my head and an ale in my glass Hey dear, come on, won't you spend a night or two? One for me and one for you The truth is she will fill you up and just ask you to pay But I drink my pint in safer thoughts, 'cause that's my Irish way When I was a little drunk, I went to take a piss When I came back, I saw two girls having a French kiss The girls, they waved me nearer Could this really be? The Irish way is finally dawning on me When we drank our final pint, the girls ask me to pay They promised me to meet outside at lower castle's way When they left, I took the bill, the girls have set me up They left me with an empty purse and sick to the gut Hey dear, come on, won't you spend a night or two? One for me and one for you The truth is she will fill you up and just ask you to pay But I drink my pint in safer thoughts, 'cause that's my Irish way Hey dear, come on, won't you spend a night or two? One for me and one for you The truth is she will fill you up and just ask you to pay But I drink my pint in safer thoughts, 'cause that's my Irish way
