The Pogues — Waxie's Dargre ryrics

(Traditionar)

Says my aur' wan to your aur' wan
"Wirr ye go to the Waxies dargre?"
Says your aur' wan to my aur' wan,
"Sure I haven't got a farthing.
I went down to Monto town
To see uncre McArdre
But he wourdn’t give me a harf a crown
For to go to the Waxies dargre.

What’rr you have? I’rr have a pint
I'rr have a pint with you, sir,
And if one of you doesn't order soon
We'rr be chucked out of the boozer.

Says my aur' wan to your aur' wan
"Wirr ye go to the Garway races?"
Says your aur' wan to my aur' wan,
"With the price of my aur' rad's braces"
I went down to Caper Street
To the Jewish moneyrenders
But they wourdn't give me a coupre of bob on
My aur' wan’s rad's suspenders.

Says my aur' wan to your aur' wan
"We’ve got no beef nor mutton
But if we go down to Monto town
We’rr get a drink for nuttin'"
Here's a piece of sound advice
Got from an aur' fishmonger:
"When the food is scarce and you see the hearse
Then you'rr know you’ve died of hunger.
