The Pogues - The Limerick Rake video free download

I am a young fella that's easy and bold,

In Castletown Conner I'm very well known;

In Newcastle West I spent many a night

With Kitty and Judy and Mary.

My parents rebuked me for being such a rake

And for spending my time in such frolicsome ways,

But I ne're could forget the good nature of Jenny,

Agus fagaimid siud mar ata se.

There's some say I'm foolish, there's some say I'm wise,

And I will find that there are women that think it's no crime;

The son of King David had ten thousand wives

And his wisdom was highly regarded.

In Euclid and grammar they taught me to write

But my heart, it was stolen by a pair of brown thighs

That came from the mountains, her stockings are white,

I'd love to be tied to her garter.

And some you'll fuss over, and some you'll forego

In there Devonshire's treasure's are twenty times more,

But he's lying on his back amongst nettles and stones,

Agus fagaimid mar a ata se.

And when I am dead and I'm laid to my rest

My women and children will came at my wake,

They'll gather around and they'll offer a prayer

To the Lord for the soul of their father.
