THE WAXIES DARGLE
(Traditional)


Says my oul wan to your oul wan will you come to the Waxies Dargle
Says your oul wan to my oul wan sure I haven't got a farthin'
I went down to Monto Town to see young Kill McArdle
But he wouldn't give me a half a crown to go to the Waxies Dargle

What will you have? Will you have a pint?
I'll have a pint with you sir
And if one of you don't order soon we'll be thrown out of the boozer

Says my aul one to your aul one will you come to the Galway Races
Says your aul one to my aul one with the price of my aul lad's braces
I went down to Capel Street to the Jew man money lenders
But they wouldn't give me a couple of bob on me oul lad's red suspenders

What will you have? Will you have a pint?
I'll have a pint with you sir
And if one of you don't order soon we'll be thrown out of the boozer

Says my aul one to your aul one we have no beef nor mutton
But if we go down to Monto Town we might get a drink for nothin'
Here's a nice piece of advice I got from an aul fishmonger
When food is scarce and you see the hearse you know you've died of hunger

What will you have? Will you have a pint?
I'll have a pint with you sir
And if one of you don't order soon we'll be thrown out of the boozer

Says my oul wan to your oul wan will you come to the Waxies Dargle
Says your oul wan to my oul wan sure I haven't got a farthin'
I went down to Monto Town to see young Kill McArdle
But he wouldn't give me a half a crown to go to the Waxies Dargle

What will you have? Will you have a pint?
I'll have a pint with you sir
And if one of you don't order soon we'll be thrown out of the booze
