Johnny McIldoo - The Bachelors[00:00:00]
There was Johnny McEldoo and McGee and me[00:00:26]
And a couple of two or three went on the spree one day[00:00:31]
We had a bob or two which we knew how to blew[00:00:34]
And the beer and whiskey flew and we all felt gay[00:00:36]
We visited McCann's Maclaman's Humpty Dan's[00:00:39]
We then went into Swan's our stomachs for to pack[00:00:41]
We ordered up a feed which indeed we did need[00:00:44]
And we finished it with speed but we still felt slack[00:00:46]
Johnny McEldoo turned red white and blue[00:00:49]
As a plate of irish stew he soon put out of sight[00:00:51]
He shouted out "Encore " with a roar for some more[00:00:53]
That he'd never felt before such a keen appetite[00:00:56]
We ordered eggs and ham bread and jam what a cram[00:00:58]
But him we couldn't ram though we tried our level best[00:01:00]
For everthing we brought cold or hot mattered not[00:01:03]
It went down him like a shot and he still stood the test[00:01:05]
He swallowed tripe and lard by the yard we got scared[00:01:08]
We thought it would go hard when the waiter brought the bill[00:01:10]
We told him to give o'er but he swore he could lower[00:01:12]
Twice as much again and more before he had his fill[00:01:14]
He nearly supped a trough full of broth says McGragh[00:01:17]
"He'll devour the tablecloth if you don't hold him in"[00:01:19]
When the waiter brought the charge McEldoo felt so large[00:01:21]
He began to shout and barge and his blood went on fire[00:01:23]
He began to curse and swear tear his hair in despair[00:01:26]
To finish the affair called the shop man a liar[00:01:28]
The shop man he threw out and no doubt he did clout[00:01:30]
McEldoo he kicked about like an old football[00:01:32]
Tattered all his clothes broke his nose I suppose[00:01:35]
He would have killed him with a few blows in no time at all[00:01:37]
Mceldoo began to howl and to growl by my soul[00:01:39]
Threw an empty bowl at the shop keepers head[00:01:41]
It struck poor Mickey Flynn took the skin from his chin[00:01:43]
An a ruction did begin and we all fought and bled[00:01:46]
The peelers did arrive man alive four or five[00:01:48]
At us they made a dive for us all to march away[00:01:50]
We paid for all the meat that we ate stood a trait[00:01:52]
And went home to ruminate on the spree that day[00:01:54]
