The Pogues - Boys from the county hell - live at the olympia, paris / 2012 lyrics

On the first day of March it was raining It was raining worse than anything that I have ever seen I drank ten pints of beer and I cursed all the people there I wish that all this rain would stop falling down on me And it's lend me ten pounds, I'll buy you a drink And mother wake me early in the morning At the time I was working for a landlord And he was the meanest ba*tard that you have ever seen And to lose a single penny would grieve him awful sore And he was a miserable bollocks and a b**h's ba*tard's who*e And it's lend me ten pounds, I'll buy you a drink And mother wake me early in the morning I recall that we took care of him one Sunday We got him out the back and we broke his f**ing balls And maybe that was dreaming and maybe that was real But all I know is I left the place without a penny or f**all And it's lend me ten pounds, I'll buy you a drink And mother wake me early in the morning But now I've the most charming of verandahs I sit and watch the junkies, the drunks, the pimps, the who*es Five green bottles sitting on the floor I wish to Christ, I wish to Christ That I had fifteen more And it's lend me ten pounds, I'll buy you a drink And mother wake me early in the morning And it's lend me ten pounds, I'll buy you a drink And mother wake me early in the morning The boys and me are drunk and looking for you We'll eat your frigging entrails and we won't give a damn Me daddy was a blue shirt and my mother a madam And my brother earned his medals at My Lai in Vietnam And it's lend me ten pounds and I'll buy you a drink And mother wake me early in the morning On the first day of March it was raining It was raining worse than anything that I have ever seen Stay on the other side of the road 'Cause you can never tell We've a thirst like a gang of devils We're the boys from the county hell And it's lend me ten pounds and I'll buy you a drink And mother wake me early in the morning And it's lend me ten pounds and I'll buy you a drink And mother wake me early in the morning
