Good Ole Drunken Days

Good Ole Drunken Days

Down on the street there were two girls
One had a ribbon in her hair
The other just a shade above her eyes
Walked up to them and I so did ask
Leave with me will you both
As I took up my flask

They said to I what may be if we do
Come to me favourite pub and I will show you
So she took the ribbon out of her hair
Wrapped it around I
She whispered in me ear very sweet and softly
Young lad, twice we've had a fun night
What's more for us to have
If we don't put up a fight

So said to her I if she wants to know
Will take you down to me favourite pub
And put on a celebratory show
Down at your feet hugging that seat
Listening to the blow
Candles lit plain as light
Eyes dripping with snow

Hold back those tears
Just like me sheep in the stable
To your hair, I'll take the shears
And my girl, tonight, you are Mabel

Have you wondered to the other girl I ask
What will in morn I say if you take off the mask
Leading the way to a frost in May
Oh I don't know but if I must

I will shout out a laughing cry
Walk about this stormy sky
Heave a way for my fellow gals
From a tree to a bottle
Back to the tree and on the ground
I a lass will hear the sound
Of a thump and a thud
Raggling in the mud
Below the storm of the night

All we wake up to the highland sun
Screaming whales and fairytales
A pounding in the nog
So ups a daisy we have another tod
In a good ole Celtic morn

Hey ho, ups a daisy
Aye oh, we sowed a lazy Mary
Hey oh, we found our minds
Nay oh, we had our craze
At the bottom of a bottle
In the mastered pub-fashioned
Kindly misused and obviously abused
Good ole drunken days
