Pogues lyrics Medley (Recruiting Sergeant, Rocky Road To Dublin, Galway Races) lyrics [Recruiting Sergeant] ----------------------------------- As I was walking down the road A feeling fine and larky oh A recruiting sergeant came up to me Says he, you'd look fine in khaki oh For the King he is in need of men Come read this proclamation oh A life in Flanders for you then Would be a fine vacation oh That may be so says I to him But tell me sergeant dearie-oh If I had a pack stuck upon my back Would I look fine and cheerie oh For they'd have you train and drill until They had you one of the Frenchies oh It may be warm in Flanders But it's draughty in the trenches oh The sergeant smiled and winked his eye His smile was most provoking oh He twiddled and twirled his wee mustache Says he, I know you're only joking oh For the sandbags are so warm and high The wind you won't feel blowing oh Well I winked at a cailin passing by Says I, what if it's snowing oh Come rain or hail or wind or snow I'm not going out to Flanders oh There's fighting in Dublin to be done Let your sergeants and your commanders go Let Englishmen fight English wars It's nearly time they started oh I saluted the sergeant a very good night And there and then we parted oh [The Rocky Road to Dublin ------------------------------------------ (instrumental)] [Galway Races] ---------------------------------- As I went down to Galway Town To seek for recreation On the seventeenth of August Me mind being elevated There were passengers assembled With their tickets at the station And me eyes began to dazzle And they off to see the races With me wack fol the do fol The diddle idle day There were passengers from Limerick And passengers from Nenagh The boys of Connemara And the Clare unmarried maiden There were people from Cork City Who were loyal, true and faithful Who brought home the Fenian prisoners From dying in foreign nations And it's there you'll see the pipers And the fiddlers competing And the sporting wheel of fortune And the four and twenty quarters And there's others without scruple Pelting wattles at poor Maggie And her father well contented And he gazing at his daughter And it's there you'll see the jockeys And they mounted on so stably The pink, the blue, the orange, and green The colors of our nation The time it came for starting All the horses seemed impatient Their feet they hardly touched the ground The speed was so amazing! There was half a million people there Of all denominations The Catholic, the Protestant, the Jew, the Presbyterian Yet there was no animosity No matter what persuasion But failte hospitality Inducing fresh acquaintance Other Pogues lyrics: Transmetropolitan lyrics Boys From The County Hell lyrics Sea Shanty lyrics Dark Streets Of London lyrics Streams Of Whiskey lyrics Poor Paddy lyrics Greenland Whale Fisheries lyrics Down In The Ground Where The Dead Men Go lyrics Kitty lyrics The Auld Triangle lyrics Waxie's Dargle lyrics The Old Main Drag lyrics A Pair Of Brown Eyes lyrics Sally MacLennane lyrics Dirty Old Town lyrics Navigator lyrics Billy's Bones lyrics The Sick Bed Of Cuchulainn lyrics I'm A Man You Don't Meet Every Day lyrics Jesse James lyrics The Gentleman Soldier lyrics And The Band Played Waltzing Matilda lyrics If I Should Fall From Grace With God lyrics Turkish Song Of The Damned lyrics Bottle Of Smoke lyrics Streets Of Sorrow\Birmingham Six lyrics Lullaby Of London lyrics Sit Down By The Fire lyrics The Broad Majestic Shannon lyrics Worms lyrics Fairytale Of New York lyrics Thousands Are Sailing lyrics Fiesta lyrics White City lyrics Misty Morning, Albert Bridge lyrics Cotton Fields lyrics Blue Heaven lyrics Down All the Days lyrics Lorelei lyrics Gartloney Rats lyrics Tombestone lyrics Night Train to Lorca lyrics London You're a Lady lyrics Young Ned of the Hill lyrics USA lyrics Boat Train lyrics The Sunnyside Of The Street lyrics Sayonara lyrics Hell's Ditch lyrics Lorca's Novena lyrics Summer In Siam lyrics Rain Street lyrics Rainbow Man lyrics The Wake Of The Medusa lyrics House Of The Gods lyrics Six To Go lyrics The Ghost Of A Smile lyrics 5 Green Queens And Jean lyrics Tuesday Morning lyrics Smell Of Petroleum lyrics Once Upon A Time lyrics Sitting On Top Of The World lyrics Drunken Boat lyrics Big City lyrics Girl From The Wadi Hammamat lyrics Modern World lyrics Pachinko lyrics My Baby's Gone lyrics Small Hours lyrics Haunting lyrics How Come lyrics Living In A World Without Her lyrics When The Ship Comes In lyrics Anniversary lyrics Amadie lyrics Love You 'Till The End lyrics Bright Lights lyrics Oretown lyrics Pont Mirabeau lyrics Four O'Clock In The Morning lyrics Where That Love's Been Gone lyrics The Sun And The Moon lyrics Tosspint lyrics |
