Johnny McEldoo

Johnny McEldoo - Tommy Makem[00:00:00]

There was johnny mceldoo and mcgee and me[00:00:02]

And a couple of two or three went on the spree one day[00:00:05]

We had a bob or two which we knew how to blew[00:00:08]

And the beer and whiskey flew and we all felt gay[00:00:11]

We visited mccann's maclaman's humpty dan's[00:00:13]

We then went into swan's our stomachs for to pack[00:00:15]

We ordered up a feed which indeed we did need[00:00:18]

And we finished it with speed but we still felt slack[00:00:20]

Johnny mceldoo turned red white and blue[00:00:23]

As a plate of irish stew he soon put out of sight[00:00:25]

He shouted out encore with a roar for some more[00:00:27]

That he'd never felt before such a keen appetite[00:00:30]

We ordered eggs and ham bread and jam what a cram[00:00:32]

But him we couldn't ram though we tried our level best[00:00:35]

For everthing we brought cold or hot mattered not[00:00:37]

It went down him like a shot and he still stood the test[00:00:40]

He swallowed tripe and lard by the yard we got scared[00:00:42]

We thought it would go hard when the waiter brought the bill[00:00:45]

We told him to give o'er but he swore he could lower[00:00:47]

Twice as much again and more before he had his fill[00:00:50]

He nearly supped a trough full of broth says mcgragh[00:00:52]

He'll devour the tablecloth if you don't hold him in[00:00:55]

When the waiter brought the charge mceldoo felt so large[00:00:57]

He began to shout and barge and his blood went on fire[00:01:00]

He began to curse and swear tear his hair in despair[00:01:02]

To finish the affair called the shop man a liar[00:01:05]

The shop man he threw out and no doubt he did clout[00:01:07]

Mceldoo he kicked about like an old football[00:01:10]

Tattered all his clothes broke his nose I suppose[00:01:12]

He would have killed him with a few blows in no time at all[00:01:14]

Mceldoo began to howl and to growl by my soul[00:01:17]

Threw an empty bowl at the shop keepers head[00:01:19]

It struck ol' mickey flynn peeled the skin from his chin[00:01:22]

An a ruction did begin and we all fought and bled[00:01:24]

The peelers did arrive man alive four or five[00:01:27]

At us they made a dive for us all to march away[00:01:29]

We paid for all the meat that we ate stood a trait[00:01:32]

And went home to ruminate on the spree that day[00:01:34]
