Dubliners - Johnny McGory lyrics

Hey, Johnny McGory Tell me where's your glory gone I saw you up in the Monto With your old leg gone A dirty Flanders bullet Sure it left you half a man Hey, Johnny McGory Where's your old leg gone Up the Sally Gardens Around the back of the pipes Messing with the liberty bells A man could lose his stripes Trading on your troubles And grabbing every chance To show the randy old ones All the things you learned in France Hey, Johnny McGory Tell me where's your glory gone I saw you up in the Monto With your old leg gone A dirty Flanders bullet Sure it left you half a man Hey, Johnny McGory Where's your old leg gone Up the Gloucester Diamond Red Biddy on your mind Not a tosser in your pocket Not a soul you could remind The lord knows you're a darling You never did give in Your neck's as hard as concrete And your laugh's a mortal sin Hey, Johnny McGory Tell me where's your glory gone I saw you up in the Monto With your old leg gone A dirty Flanders bullet Sure it left you half a man Hey, Johnny McGory Where's your old leg gone Monday in the Iveagh Tuesday in the dregs Wednesday's walking wounded Thursday's soldier begs Friday's heroes on the touch And Saturday's lost again How if Sunday's got good intentions Sure we start the week again Hey, Johnny McGory Tell me where's your glory gone I saw you up in the Monto With your old leg gone A dirty Flanders bullet Sure it left you half a man Hey, Johnny McGory Where's your old leg gone
