All i remember - Christy moore[00:00:02]
I was lured by the rocking horse[00:00:04]
Sweets and the bualadh bos[00:00:06]
Fifty wild boys to a room[00:00:07]
Sing lh lh eile the dish ran away with the spoon[00:00:09]
Black shoes and stockings for those who say don't[00:00:15]
Blue is the colour outside[00:00:17]
God made the world[00:00:20]
The snake tempted Eve and she died[00:00:22]
Wild Christian brothers sharpening their leathers[00:00:26]
Learn it by heart that's the rule[00:00:29]
All I remember is dreading September and school[00:00:31]
And they made me for better or worse[00:00:37]
The fool that I am or the wise man I'll be[00:00:40]
And they gave me their blessings or curse[00:00:42]
It wasn't their fault I was me [00:00:45]
Not the one that you see[00:00:49]
The priest in confession condemns my obsession[00:00:52]
With thoughts that I do not invite[00:00:54]
I mumble and stutter[00:00:57]
He slams down the shutter[00:00:59]
Goodnight - (Good night to you too Father)[00:01:00]
Stainless as steel[00:01:02]
Lord you know how I feel[00:01:04]
Someone shoot me while my soul is clear[00:01:06]
I don't think I'll last[00:01:08]
But my vow to abstain was sincere[00:01:10]
Arch-confraternity men to the fight[00:01:14]
Raise up your banners on high[00:01:16]
Searching for grace[00:01:19]
Securing my place[00:01:21]
When I die [00:01:22]
And they made me for better or worse[00:01:25]
The fool that I am or the wise man I'll be[00:01:28]
And they gave me their blessings or curse It wasn't their fault I was me [00:01:30]
Not the one that you see[00:01:36]
Oh God he kept a very close eye on me[00:01:39]
Hung round my bed in the darkness he spied on me[00:01:42]
Caught me in the long grass so often he died on me [00:01:44]
Ballrooms of romance in Salthill or Mallow[00:01:49]
I stood like John Wayne by the wall[00:01:52]
Lined up like cattle we waited to do battle and fall[00:01:55]
You can't wine and dine her in an old Morris Minor[00:02:01]
So ask her before it's too late[00:02:03]
I danced on girls' toes - accepted rejection as my fate[00:02:06]
Drink was my saviour it made me much braver[00:02:12]
But I couldn't hold it too well[00:02:14]
I slipped on the coach and ruined my approach as I fell [00:02:17]
And they made me for better or worse[00:02:22]
The fool that I am or the wise man I'll be[00:02:26]
And they gave me their blessings or curse It wasn't their fault I was me [00:02:29]
Not the one that you see[00:02:34]
