As I enter town one fine summers day
I was ambushed and beaten, my purse snatched away
My companions they laughed; said I was an a**,
So it's off to the Ale House to get me a gla**!
And now that you know my sad tale of woe
Me life it gets harder the farther I go
These words of advice to you I now pa**
The future looks brighter when seen through a gla**!
I came to me home after working all night,
I crept through the house as to not wake up me wife,
I fonud her asleep in the arms of a la**
So it's back to the Ale House to get me a gla**!
And now that you know my sad tale of woe
Me life it gets harder the farther I go
These words of advice to you I now pa**,
The future looks brighter when seen through a gla**!
Me mother said she was blind and near dead
She needed some money to buy her a bread
I payed her for a month, she moved upwards in cla**,
She now owns the Ale House were I buy a gla**!
And now that you know my sad tale of woe
Me life it gets harder the farther I go
These words of advice to you I now pa**
The future looks brighter when seen through a gla**!
While going to market I bumped a price pool
The mergent who owned it dared me to a duel.
I packed up me bags, left town in a dash,
I'm in the next county now drinking a gla**!
And now that you know my sad tale of woe,
Me life it gets harder the farther I go.
These words of advice to you I now pa**,
The future looks brighter when seen through a gla**!
"Have courage!" there came a voice from the rear;
"All you need is a little bit food and strong beer.
All of us here have sad tales fromt he past,
A man's life is spend in the pursuit for a gla**!
And now that you know my sad tale of woe
Me life it gets harder the farther I go.
These words of advice to you I now pa**,
The future looks brighter when seen through a gla**!
