《Johnny McEldoo》歌词

[00:00:00] Johnny McEldoo - The Clancy Brothers/Tommy Makem

[00:00:00] There was Johnny McEldoo and McGee and me

[00:00:05] And a couple or two or three

[00:00:06] Went on a spree one day

[00:00:08] We had a bob or two which

[00:00:09] We knew how to blew

[00:00:10] And the beer and whiskey flew

[00:00:11] And we all felt gay

[00:00:13] We visited McCann's McLemann's

[00:00:15] Humpty Dan's

[00:00:16] We then went into Swann's

[00:00:17] Our stomachs for to pack

[00:00:18] We ordered out a feed

[00:00:19] Which indeed we did need

[00:00:20] And we finished it with speed

[00:00:22] But we still felt slack

[00:00:23] Johnny McEldoo turned red

[00:00:25] White and blue

[00:00:25] And a plate of Irish stew

[00:00:27] He soon put out of sight

[00:00:28] He shouted out Encore

[00:00:29] With a roar for some more

[00:00:30] That he never felt before such a keen appetite

[00:00:33] He ordered eggs and ham bread

[00:00:34] And jam what a cram

[00:00:35] But him we couldn't ram though

[00:00:37] We tried our level best

[00:00:38] For everything we brought cold

[00:00:39] Or hot mattered not

[00:00:40] It went down him like a shot and

[00:00:42] He still stood the test

[00:00:43] He swallowed tripe and lard by the yard

[00:00:44] We got scared

[00:00:45] We thought it would go hard

[00:00:46] When the waiter brought the bill

[00:00:47] We told him to give other

[00:00:48] But he swore he could loser

[00:00:50] Twice as much again and

[00:00:51] More before he had his fill

[00:00:52] He nearly sucked a trough full of broth

[00:00:53] Says McGrath

[00:00:54] He'll devour the table cloth

[00:00:55] If you don't hold him in

[00:00:57] When the waiter brought the charge

[00:00:58] McEldoo felt so large

[00:00:59] He began to scowl and barge and

[00:01:00] His blood went on fire

[00:01:01] He began to curse and swear tear

[00:01:03] His hair in despair

[00:01:03] And to finish the affair

[00:01:04] Called the shopman a liar

[00:01:06] The shopman he drew out and

[00:01:07] No doubt he did clout

[00:01:08] McEldoo he kicked about

[00:01:08] Like an old football

[00:01:10] He tattered all his clothes broke

[00:01:11] His nose I suppose

[00:01:12] He'd have killed him with a few blows

[00:01:13] In no time at all

[00:01:14] McEldoo began to howl

[00:01:15] And to growl by my soul

[00:01:16] He threw an empty bowl

[00:01:17] At the shopkeeper's head

[00:01:18] It struck by Mickey Finn peeled

[00:01:19] The skin off his chin

[00:01:20] And the ructions did begin

[00:01:21] And we all fought and bled

[00:01:22] The Peelers did arrive man alive four or five

[00:01:23] At us the made a drive us all to march away

[00:01:25] We paid for all the meat

[00:01:26] That we ate stood a treat

[00:01:28] And went home to ruminate on the spree that day
