When my granda' met with |
|
Patsy Cline |
|
He thought he'd have a wonderful time |
|
She stepped on his foot and he did pine |
|
I'm none the better for dancing |
|
I'm none the better for dancing |
|
Down at St. |
|
Anthony's oh |
|
Well Jim if we had a bob or two |
|
I'd tell you what we just might do |
|
Invite the ladies over a few |
|
And maybe the maids'll come dancing |
|
And maybe the maids'll come dancing |
|
Down at St. |
|
Anthony's oh |
|
We told ol' |
|
Joe half eight for sure |
|
He turned around and told one more |
|
And four hundred nutters turned up at the door |
|
All looking for maids to go dancing |
|
All looking for maids to go dancing |
|
Down at St. |
|
Anthony's oh |
|
We nearly had to fend them off |
|
They came in the house and began to scoff |
|
Of refreshment sure there wasn't enough |
|
Enough for the maids to come dancing |
|
Enough for the maids to come dancing |
|
Down at St. |
|
Anthony's oh |
|
They got in the whiskey and brandy too |
|
Then Flannery spewed up on my shoe |
|
He turned to me and said |
|
I love you |
|
Oh Jimmy we better go dancing |
|
Oh Jimmy we better go dancing |
|
Down at St. |
|
Anthony's oh |
|
To the Ashford house on a |
|
Friday night |
|
Then Tuman's and |
|
Ginger's for a bite |
|
And it's exit that's open through all of the night |
|
If they'll let me back in to go dancing |
|
If they'll let me back in to go dancing |
|
Down at St. |
|
Anthony's oh |
|
Oh now come my boys and be aware |
|
To make the scene you must take care |
|
And not show up with puke in your hair |
|
And maybe the maids will come dancing |
|
And maybe the maids will come dancing |
|
Down at St. |
|
Anthony's oh |
