The Fenians - Every Day's a Hooley (Tom Dooley, Pt. 2) lyrics



I went downtown for employment to inquire
Got an interview but I didn’t get hired.
So I went into a bar and drank as much as I desired
‘Cause shots are always better when they’re drunk and when they’re fired.
Beyond the dullsville I retire!

(chorus)
Lift up your head Tom Dooley,
Keep it up as well as you’re able.
‘Cause every day’s a hooley
When there’s supper on the table.

She was my queen and I was her king.
It didn’t last long, she gave me back her ring.
‘Cause love is a many splintered thing
It’s underneath her skin and causes slippage of her ring
Nothing you can do but sing!

(chorus)

So keep up your faith in humanity.
If you find yourself in a calamity,
Just try to hold on to your sanity
But not too tight!

[Vocal improv]

(chorus, repeat)

Judge says “boy you’re gonna do some time”.
I’m on the run ‘cause I didn’t do the crime,
So I went for to cross o’er the border line.
I walked right through gate 49.
Someday I’m gonna get what’s mine!

(chorus, repeated with vocal improv until song fades)
