Текст с Bandcamp’a:
“We were in the pub last night of our holiday
Seems like every song it starts in that way
A shot in the glass and a pint in the hand
Last night in town we’re gonna make it grand
We started out at Casey’s the best pint in the town
Had no idea all the shit about to go down
The lads started fighting and the girls all joined in too
Poor own was battered black and blue
I swear we come for fun and we don’t want know trouble
But now we’re feeling drunk and we’re starting to see double
Too early to go home and we don’t really wanna
Well I tell ya boys it’s just a short walk to Sonnagh
Old Kelley pulled around the car and from there we darted
You ain’t going home sure you’re only getting started
We drove from town to town and we ended in Kilmaine
He left us standing in the rain
So we went into Macken’s and we had another round
But when we came out Kelley was nowhere to be found
They kicked us out at closing time and left us in the dark
The tinkers they mugged us and left us in the park
CHORUS
Early next morning as the sun began to rise
And still no sight of Kelley not much of a surprise
Our heads quite heavy and our pockets rather light
As we tried to piece together what happened to us last night
Now we’re going home and we’re trying to catch our plane
Trying to thumb a ride but our efforts are in vain
Along the N17 and counting every stone
And now we know exactly how far it is to home
CHORUS
