Toor-a-ah Lyrics

Here we are amongst you,

And we're here because we're here

We're only one year older

Than were this time last year A-Ah

Chorus:

Toor-A-Ah, Toor-A-Ah, Me rightful Toor-A-Ah

Rum da dum, for didl-ly-um on my Toor-A-Ah-A-Ah

The more a man has, the more a man wants

This, I don't think true

I've never met a man with a naggin' wife

Who wished that he had two A-Ah

Chorus

A young Colleen had a husband

Oh, but he was good in bed,

He went straight to sleep and he never snored

And he lay like he was dead A-Ah

Chorus

The farmers wife had children ten

And she didn't know what to do

While the sailors wife had children none

But she knew what to do

Chorus

Instumental

Chorus

Well, I've got a girl in Dublin town

I've one in Belfast too

But I never tell the Dublin girl

What the Belfast girl can do

Chorus

Whiskey's fine on a winter's night

If you ask me what I think

But I like beer

For I think it's more than just a breakfast drink

Chorus

So now our story's over

And our song is at an end

But if you buy us a pint of stouch,

We'll sing it all again A-Ah

Chorus
