[The Pogues' Version]
------------------------------------
Says my aul' wan to your aul' wan
";Will ye go to the Waxies dargle?";
Says your aul' wan to my aul' wan,
";I haven't got a farthing.
I went up to Monto town
To see Uncle McArdle
But he wouldn't give me a half a crown
For to go to the Waxies dargle.";
What will ya have?!
I'll have a pint!
I'll have a pint with you, Sir!
And if one of ya' doesn't order soon
We'll be chucked out of the boozer!
Says my aul' wan to your aul' wan
";Will ye go to the Galway races?";
Says your aul' wan to my aul' wan,
";I'll hawk me aul' man's braces.
I went up to Capel Street
To the Jewish moneylenders
But he wouldn't give me a couple of bob
For the aul' man's red suspenders.";
Chorus
Says my aul' wan to your aul' wan
";We got no beef or mutton
If we went up to Monto town
We might get a drink for nuttin'";
Here's a nice piece of advice
I got from an aul' fishmonger:
";When food is scarce and you see the hearse
You'll know you have died of hunger.";
Chorus x2
[Waxie's Dargle]
------------------------------------------
Says my aul' wan to your aul' wan
";Will ye come to the Waxies dargle?";
Says your aul' wan to my aul' wan,
";Sure I haven't got a farthing.
I've just been down to Monto town
To see Uncle McArdle
But he didn't have half a crown
For to go to the Waxies dargle.";
What are ye having, will ye have a pint?
Yes, I'll have a pint with you, sir,
And if one of us doesn't order soon
We'l
