The Foggy Few - Paddy O'Neills Return lyrics
I came in to town, it was late November.With leaves a-falling and snow on it’s way. Stopped in at a bar at a place I remember. From many years back when I came there to play. The crowd in the Pub was the same as the last time. Some hair had turned greyer, some hair it was gone. They looked up to measure this wayfaring stranger. Before all the gossip and stories went on. And most of the stories I nodded my head to And greeted them smiling, like any old friend. But there was a new one I knew not the end to, About a drunk Sod from a travelling band. In one drunken night he caused nine divorces And twelve fatherless children were left with no names. The villagers gathered their guns and their horses, But they never saw this drunk Bastard again. I’m just a guitar-playing, folk-singing Bastard, Too lazy to work and too nervous to steal. As I left the Pub when the night was outlasted, I said: Tell the kids that their names are O’Neill. And tell all their mothers that I still remember them. Both by their looks, their names and their skills From many years back, one night in November,When Paddy O’Neill had his way and his thrill... In one drunken night.... |
