[The Pogues' Version]

------------------------------------





Says my aul' wan to your aul' wan

";Will ye go to the Waxies dargle?";

Says your aul' wan to my aul' wan,

But he wouldn't give me a half a crown

For to go to the Waxies dargle.";



What will ya have?!

And if one of ya' doesn't order soon

I went up to Capel Street

To the Jewish moneylenders

But he wouldn't give me a couple of bob

For the aul' man's red suspenders.";





Chorus

";We got no beef or mutton

If we went up to Monto town

We might get a drink for nuttin'";

Here's a nice piece of advice

I got from an aul' fishmonger:

";When food is scarce and you see the hearse

You'll know you have died of hunger.";

I've just been down to Monto town

To see Uncle McArdle

But he didn't have half a crown

For to go to the Waxies dargle.";



What are ye having, will ye have a pint?

Yes, I'll have a pint with you, sir,

And if one of us doesn't order soon
