Barleyjuice - Monto lyrics

rate me

Well if you got a wingo-o

Take her up to ring-o

Where the waxies sing-o

All the day

If you've had your fill o' porter

And you can't go any further

Give your man the order -

Back to the quay!

And take her up to monto monto monto

Take her up to monto langeroo

To you

Have you heard of the duke of gloucester

The dirty old imposter

He got a mott and lost her

Up the furry glen

He first put on his bowler hat

And buttoned up his trousers

And he whistled for his growler

And he said, "my man -

Take me up to monto monto monto

Take me up to monto langeroo

To you"

Have you heard of the dublin fusileers

Them dirty old bamboozileers

They went and got the childer

One two three

Marching from the linen hall

There's one for every cannon ball

And vicky's going to send em all

O'er the sea

But first go up to monto monto monto

First go up to monto langeroo

To you

Now the czar of russia

And the king of prussia

They landed in the phoenix

In a big balloon

The asked the guardo band to play

The wearing of the green

But the buggers in the depot

Didn't know the tune

So they both went up to monto monto monto

They both went up to monto langeroo

To you

And the queen she came to call on us

She wanted to see all of us

I'm glad she didn't fall on us

She's eighteen stone!

"mr. me lord the mayor," said she

"is this all you got to show me?"

Why no ma'am, there's so much more to see

Pog mo thoin!

And we took her up to monto monto monto

We took her up to monto langeroo

To you

And we all went up to monto monto monto

We all went up to monto langeroo

To you!
