[00:00.353] | T'was early Friday mornin' as I cycled into town |
[00:05.290] | The front wheel it was wobblin' and the mud guard fallin' down |
[00:09.862] | The two legs of me trousers were held up with bits of twine |
[00:14.538] | And a pension book kept telling me a pint would soon be mine |
[00:19.422] | How are you Mr. Murphy, said the postal clerk to me |
[00:23.968] | Not too bad, says I, for a man of 73 |
[00:28.461] | The fox came to me house last night and stole me only duck |
[00:33.293] | "Buy a lottery ticket", she says, "It might change your luck." |
[00:37.969] | Well I took the little girls’ advice and I gave to her a pound |
[00:42.698] | Outside I scratched me ticket with the penknife I had found |
[00:47.191] | Well I nearly dropped me trousers and I grew a head of hair |
[00:52.128] | When I realized I was a bloody millionaire |
[00:58.031] | No more hay or turf to save, no more feedin' calves |
[01:02.786] | One kick from me big boot and the bike was in two halves |
[01:07.357] | I headed for the local, sure I was feeling great |
[01:12.059] | And friends I never knew I had came in to celebrate |
[01:17.231] | Not long after that I had a new suit on me back |
[01:21.724] | A new red car outside the door with a telephone on the rack |
[01:26.427] | Me wife was wearing a blonde wig where her gray head used to be |
[01:31.129] | And the Wellington tracks had disappeared from just below her knee |
[01:37.868] | I sat there admiring the new dress that she wore |
[01:42.440] | A lovely set of teeth she had installed the day before |
[01:47.168] | I held her oh so tightly like when I was a groom |
[01:52.131] | And we looked rich and graceful as we waltzed around the room |
[01:57.068] | Well then I got an awful shock, I thought I’d nearly die |
[02:01.849] | I spied my ugly missus as I opened up one eye |
[02:06.681] | With rollers in her old gray head she nearly made me sick |
[02:11.383] | "Get up and milk the cows", she says, "you ravin’ lunatic." |
[02:16.869] | It was then I realized that it was all a dream |
[02:21.362] | The cow was lowing in the field and the cat was at the cream |
[02:26.064] | Our bike was thrown in the hedge, me trousers had a shine |
[02:30.740] | ah but twas lovely while it lasted, that winnin’ dream of mine |
[00:00.353] | T' was early Friday mornin' as I cycled into town |
