Bar the Door Casey |
| Bar the door Casey, don’t let me in |
| My shade’ll not cross your dear threshold again |
| Bar the door Casey, mind the way well |
| And send my poor ghost on to heaven or hell |
| We’ve fought scores of sailors for the suds frae a keg |
| O’er the draw of a card, or a rare glimpse of leg |
| We’ve graced Kuta’s beaches with our pallid white skin |
| Now Casey old mate, my barge has come in |
| Bar the door Casey, don’t let me in |
| My shade’ll not cross your dear threshold again |
| Bar the door Casey, mind the way well |
| And send my poor ghost on to heaven or hell |
| We’ve stormed foreign strands & taken our knocks |
| Held fast to our picket & lay siege to the docks |
| We’ve mourned pals & lovers too long fore their time |
| Now Casey old China, the parting is mine |
| Bar the door Casey, don’t let me in |
| My shade’ll not cross your dear threshold again |
| Bar the door Casey, mind the way well |
| And send my poor ghost on to heaven or hell |
| I’ve penned a few lines to my missus of years |
| If ye find where she’s staying, don’t wait for the tears |
| And I’ve left a wee sum for to see me away |
| And a pint to fond memory at the close of the day |
| Bar the door Casey, don’t let me in |
| My shade’ll not cross your dear threshold again |
| Bar the door Casey, mind the way well |
| And send my poor ghost on to heaven or hell |
