Molly McGuire - Try To Stay Sober lyrics

rate me

Joined up at the pub just to have one beer

When the landlady asked us to play a tune

And we played the tune that the landlady begged

After filling us up with some porter

For each song that we sung, she filled our glasses

For each son we sung, we got more drunk

And the people they cheered and filled us up

The night we tried to stay sober

The news of our music was spread around

So we went up North to play our songs

Singing songs about sailing and catching our fish

And they started to fill us with porter

For each song that we sung, she filled our glasses

For each son we sung, we got more drunk

And the people they cheered and filled us up

The night we tried to stay sober

Times was swell as we travelled about

Tried to refuse the whiskey and stout

Singing songs about drinking both whiskey and beer

And they started to fill us with porter

For each song that we sung, she filled our glasses

For each son we sung, we got more drunk

And the people they cheered and filled us up

The night we tried to stay sober

As all good young man holding their pride

Fighting for glory and keeping their vows

Singing songs about callgirls and strippers and whores

And we tried but we couldn't stay sober
