Song Lyrics:

Murphy’s Drinking Song

Vs 1                                                                                                Mark Bainbridge C 2002

Well I was sitting with the old boys playing songs from long ago

And we had a few to fuel our vocal chords

And the lyrics weren’t quite right,

But who cared anyway

As long as we sang the chorus in accord

CH

And its            1          2          3

Have a pint with me sirs                   A couple of drinks will loosen the kinks Belly up, now what will it be?

And its         1         2          3          A whiskey of the best me lads, we’ll put to the test me lads,

Come on, this rounds on me!

Well I was sitting in the pub               Irish Murphy’s down the road,

and a slip of a lass came and sat by me

She said her name was Sandy,         and I got all hot and randy!

But when she ordered doubles I could see!!                                                 CH

Well it was late in the night             And I was sitting on a bar stool.

Talking to Paul, the barman, about life.

But it was getting late, and he wanted to shut the gate,

So he rang the bell and said, “Get home to your wife ! !”                          CH
