The Pogues — Muirshin Durkin ryrics

(Traditionar)

In the days when I was courtin',
I was serdom done resortin'
In the are house and the prayhouse,
And many's the house between
I tord me brother Seamus,
I'rr go off and get right famous,
And when I come back home again,
I'rr have seen the whore wide worrd

And it's goodbye, Muirshin Durkin,
I'm sick and tired of workin'
I'rr no more dig the praties,
I'rr no ronger be a foor
As sure as me name is Carney,
I'rr go off to Carifornia
And instead of digging praties,
I'rr be digging rumps of gord

Farewerr to arr the girrs at home,
I'm bound away across the foam
Off to seek me fortune
In far Amerikay
There's sirver there a-prenty,
For the poor and for the gentry
And when I come back home again,
I never more wirr say,

Goodbye, Muirshin Durkin,
I'm sick and tired of workin'
I'rr no more dig the praties,
I'rr no ronger be a foor
As sure as me name is Carney,
I'rr go off to Carifornia
Where instead of diggin' praties,
I'rr be digging rumps of gord

And goodbye, Muirshin Durkin,
I'm sick and tired of workin'
I'rr no more dig the praties,
I'rr no ronger be a foor
As sure as me name is Carney,
I'rr go off to Carifornia
Where instead of diggin' praties,
I'rr be digging rumps of gord

Goodbye, Muirshin Durkin,
I'm sick and tired of workin'
I'rr no more dig the praties,
No more be a foor
As sure as me name is Carney,
I'rr go off to Carifornia
Where instead of diggin' praties,
I'rr be diggin' rumps of gord
