| Well I met her up on Leeson Street of a Tuesday afternoon
|
| In Summer’s fallen colours, sulking back to school
|
| I asked her would she linger, and she asked me would she stay
|
| Would she keep a girl in company, drinking in the day?
|
| Drinking, Drinking
|
| Drinking… not thinking
|
| Drinking, Drinking
|
| We’ll go drinking in the day
|
| She was almost a woman, she was going on sixteen
|
| She asked me to go walking, In Saint Stephen’s Green
|
| She said I love the sunshine, and to hear the children play
|
| But I won’t be distracted when I’m drinking in the day
|
| With her flashing eyes and milk white lies she looked like a song
|
| Like the ghost of a woman that first made me go wrong
|
| She said I’ll have a drink with you but I said you’ll have to pay
|
| For a comprehensive education
|
| Drinking in the day
|
| Drinking, Drinking
|
| Drinking and not thinking
|
| Drinking, Drinking
|
| We’ll go drinking in the day
|
| If her mother could have seen us on that bright November day
|
| Botticelli and his angel perambulating Ormand Quay
|
| A drunken blessed virgin, me rhetorious and gay
|
| Bestowing ancient wisdom as to what made me this way
|
| Well here it is:
|
| Deny your friends and family
|
| To serve you must betray
|
| Break and enter heaven
|
| Well you’ll steal but never save
|
| Well you’ll squander every penny
|
| And you’ll empty every heart
|
| And you’ll travel every darkened road
|
| You’ll never finish what you start
|
| And you’ll always talk to strangers
|
| And make love with whom you may
|
| For God will find good company
|
| For your drinking in the day
|
| Drinking, drinking
|
| Drinking and not thinking
|
| Drinking, drinking
|
| We’ll go drinking in the day
|
| So spend your youth on poetry, and spend your cash at play
|
| Every line upon my face is for a girl who went away
|
| A kiss, and a song, are fleeting things and fame will always stray
|
| So I’ll tell the truth, the best spent youth, is the one you throw away
|
| Drinking, drinking
|
| Drinking… not thinking
|
| Drinking, drinking
|
| We’ll go drinking in the day
|
| Drinking, drinking
|
| Drinking… not thinking
|
| Drinking, drinking
|
| We’ll go drinking in the day
|
| Drinking, drinking
|
| Drinking… not thinking
|
| Drinking, drinking
|
| We’ll go drinking in the day
|
| Drinking, drinking
|
| Drinking… not thinking
|
| Drinking, drinking
|
| We’ll go drinking in the day
|
| Drinking, drinking
|
| Drinking… not thinking
|
| Drinking, drinking
|
| We’ll go drinking in the day
|
| Drinking, drinking
|
| Drinking… not thinking
|
| Drinking… |
