Keg Of Brandy |
I’m always drunk and I’m seldom sober |
A constant roving from town to town |
Ah but I’m old now, my sporting’s over |
So Molly, a stór, won’t you lay me down? |
Just lay my head on a keg of brandy |
It is my fancy, I do declare |
For while I’m drinking, I’m always thinking |
On lovely Molly from the County Clare |
The ripest apple is the soonest rotten |
And the warmest love is the soonest cold |
And a young man’s fancies are soon forgotten |
Beware, young maids, and don’t make so bold |
Just lay my head on a keg of brandy |
It is my fancy, I do declare |
For while I’m drinking, I’m always thinking |
On lovely Molly from the County Clare |
For it’s youth and folly make young men marry |
And makes them tarry along the day |
What can’t be cured, love, must be endured, love |
So farewell, darling, I’m going away |
