Stitch In Time - Christy Moore[00:00:00]

There was a woman and she lived in her own[00:00:00]

Slaved on her own and skivvied on her own[00:00:04]

There was a woman and she lived in her own[00:00:16]

Slaved on her own and skivvied on her own[00:00:19]

She had two little boys and two little girls[00:00:22]

She lived all alone with her husband[00:00:25]

He was a hunk if a man[00:00:31]

A chunk of a man and a drunk of a man[00:00:34]

A hunk of a drunken spunk of a man[00:00:36]

Such a boozy bruising bully of a husband[00:00:39]

When he came home drunk at night[00:00:44]

He thrashed her black and he thrashed her white[00:00:47]

Thrashed her to within an inch of her life[00:00:50]

And snored all night like a pig her drunken husband[00:00:52]

One night she gathered her tears all round her shame[00:00:58]

Covered up the bruising cried with the pain[00:01:02]

You'll not do that ever again[00:01:05]

I'll not live anymore with a drunken husband[00:01:07]

That night as he lay drunk in bed[00:01:12]

The strangest thought came to her head[00:01:16]

She took the needle and the thread[00:01:18]

And went straight into her sleeping husband[00:01:21]

She started to stitch with a girlish thrill[00:01:27]

With a woman's eye and a seamstress skill[00:01:30]

She bibbed and tucked with an iron will[00:01:33]

As she stitched all around her sleeping husband[00:01:36]

The top sheet and the bottom sheet too[00:01:41]

The blanket stitched to the mattress through[00:01:45]

She worked and stitched the whole night through[00:01:47]

Waiting for the dawn and her husband[00:01:50]

He awoke with a pain in his head[00:01:55]

He found that he could not move in bed[00:01:58]

Sweet God in heaven have I lost me legs[00:02:01]

She just sat and smiled at her husband[00:02:04]

In her hand In her hand In her hand she held the frying pan[00:02:10]

With a flutter in her heart she flew at him[00:02:16]

He could not move so he cried God Damn[00:02:19]

Don't you swear at me you dirty husband[00:02:22]

She beat him black and she beat him blue[00:02:28]

With the frying pan and the colander too[00:02:31]

With the rolling pin a stroke or two[00:02:34]

Such a battered and a beaten husband[00:02:37]

If you ever come home drunk again[00:02:42]

I'll stitch you up and sew you in[00:02:46]

Then I'll pack my bags and I'll be gone[00:02:48]

I'll not live anymore with a drunken husband[00:02:51]

Isn't it true what a wife can do[00:02:56]

With a needle thread and a stitch or two[00:02:59]

He wiped his slate and his boozin is through[00:03:02]

She don't live anymore with a drunken husband[00:03:06]
