Out On The Road |
«Out on the road, it’s dark and it’s cold,» |
Said my mother as she passed by |
«You'll never stick it long enough |
You’re a fool to even try |
You’ve gone off with a band of men, all addicts, skites, and bums |
So you think you will enjoy your life in the tenancy and the slums.» |
Tur ra la, tu ra la, tu ra la, li |
Out on the road is where your Uncle died |
Tur ra la, tu ra la, tu ra la, li |
I have no time for you on the road |
«Playing music ain’t no way to live |
It’s hungry, cold, and slack |
And if you walk out that door my Son |
Well, you won’t be coming back.» |
But it’s down the pub, all my friends are there |
And there’s no place that I’d rather be |
So, you think this life will engulf me? |
Well I’ll tell you we’ll just wait and see |
So I kissed my tearful Father at the door and I left him there |
With five bottles of Bushmill’s and two on my chair |
We set out for the county Clare |
And it’s Ceili’s jigs and booze in Killrush |
Dooneed can be quite a thrill |
And I won’t come back 'till I’ve made my name |
Until I have had my fill |
