Waxie's Dargle Sözleri

[The Pogues' Version]

------------------------------------

Says my aul' wan to your aul' wan

"Will ye go to the Waxies dargle?"

Says your aul' wan to my aul' wan,

"I haven't got a farthing.

I went up to Monto town

To see Uncle McArdle

But he wouldn't give me a half a crown

For to go to the Waxies dargle."

What will ya have?!

I'll have a pint!

I'll have a pint with you, Sir!

And if one of ya' doesn't order soon

We'll be chucked out of the boozer!

Says my aul' wan to your aul' wan

"Will ye go to the Galway races?"

Says your aul' wan to my aul' wan,

"I'll hawk me aul' man's braces.

I went up to Capel Street

To the Jewish moneylenders

But he wouldn't give me a couple of bob

For the aul' man's red suspenders."

Chorus

Says my aul' wan to your aul' wan

"We got no beef or mutton

If we went up to Monto town

We might get a drink for nuttin'"

Here's a nice piece of advice

I got from an aul' fishmonger:

"When food is scarce and you see the hearse

You'll know you have died of hunger."

[Waxie's Dargle]

------------------------------------------

Says my aul' wan to your aul' wan

"Will ye come to the Waxies dargle?"

Says your aul' wan to my aul' wan,

"Sure I haven't got a farthing.

I've just been down to Monto town

To see Uncle McArdle

But he didn't have half a crown

For to go to the Waxies dargle."

What are ye having, will ye have a pint?

Yes, I'll have a pint with you, sir,

And if one of us doesn't order soon

We'll be thrown out of the boozer.

Says my aul' wan to your aul' wan

"Will ye come to the Galway races?"

Says your aul' wan to my aul' wan,

"With the price of my aul' lad's braces.

I went down to Capel Street

To the Jew man moneylenders

But they wouldn't give me a couple of bob on

My aul' lad's suspenders."

Chorus

Says my aul' wan to your aul' wan

"We have no beef or mutton

But if we go down to Monto town

We might get a drink for nuttin'"

Here's a piece of good advice

I got from an aul' fishmonger:

"When food is scarce and you see the hearse

You'll know you have died of hunger.
