Songtexte

[Verse 1]
I am a young fellow who's easy and bold
In Castletown Conner, I'm very well-known
In Newcastle West, I spent many a night
With Kitty and Judy and Mary
[Verse 2]
My parents rebuked me for being such a rake
And for spending my time in such frolicsome ways
But I ne'er could forget the good nature of Jane
Agus fágaimíd siúd mar atá sé
[Instrumental]
And some say I'm foolish and some say I'm wise
And many a women who think it no crime
The son of King David had ten thousand wives
And his wisdom was highly regarded
[Verse 3]
In Euclid and grammar, they taught me to write
But my heart, it was stolen by a pair of brown thighs
She came from the mountains, her stockings were white
I'd love to be tied to her garter
[Instrumental]
And some you'll hold on to and some you'll forego
In Devonshire's treasures are twenty times more
But he's laid on his back among nettles and stones
Agus fágaimíd mar atá sé
[Verse 4]
And when I am dead and I'm laid to my rest
My wives and my children will come at my wake
They'll gather together and offer a prayer
To the Lord for the soul of their father
Written by: Danny Dunford, Seán Dunford, Stephen Dunford, Tommy Dunford
