OLD DUN COW



Some friends and I in a public house

Were playing dominoes one night

When into the room a fireman came,

His face all chalky white

"What's up?" says Brown, "Have you seen a ghost?"

"Have you seen your Aunt Moriah?"

"Oh my Aunt Moriah be buggered," says he,

"The bleeding pubs on fire"



"Oh," says Brown, "What a bit of luck

Everybody follow me

It's down to the cellar if the fire's not there

Then we'll have a grand old spree"

So we all went down with good old Brown

And the booze we could not miss

And we hadn't been there ten minutes or more

Till we were quite like this

Oh, there was Brown, up side down

Mopping up the whiskey on the floor

"Booze, booze" the firemen cried

As they come a knockin' at the door

"Well don't let em in till it's all mopped up

Somebody shouted, "MacIntyre"

And we all got blue blind paralytic drunk

When the Old Dun Cow caught fire



Then Smith ran over to the port wine tub

And gave it just a few hard knocks

He started taking off his pantaloons

Likewise his shoes and socks

"Oh no," says Brown, "That t'ain't allowed

You can't do that there

Don't be washing your trotters in the port wine tub

When we got some Guinesses beer"



Then there came a mighty crash

Half the bloody room caved in

And we were drownded by the fireman's hose

Though we were almost happy

So we got some tacks and some wet old sacks

And we packed ourselves inside

And we sat there getting bleery eyed drunk

When the Old Dun Cow caught fire
