bodh’aktan – mick mcguire lyrics

[verse 1]
oh, me name is mick mcguire and i’ll quickly tell to you
of a girl that i admired, she was katy donahue
ah, she’s fair and fat and forty and believe me when i say
whenever i came through the door i could hear her mother say

[chorus]
“johnny, get up from the fire, get up and give your man a sate
can’t you see it’s mick mcguire and he’s courting your sister kate
you know very well he owns a farm a wee bit out of the town
arragh, get out of that, you impudent brat and let the mac sit down”

[verse 2]
well, the first time that i met her was a dance at donaghadee
when i very quietly asked her if she’d dance a step for me
i asked if i could take her home for she’d be on me way
whenever i came through the door i could hear her mother say

[verse 3]
and now that we are married, her mother changed her mind
all because i spent the money her father left behind
she hasn’t got the decency to give me time of day
whenever i came through the door i could hear her mother say
[chorus]
“johnny, come up to the fire, come up, you’re sitting in the draft
can’t you see it’s old mcguire and he nearly drives me daft
sure i don’t know what gets in him, and he’s always on the tare
so sit where you are and never you dare, give old mcguire the chair”

“sure i don’t know what gets in him when he’s always on the tare
so sit where you are and never you dare, give old mcguire the chair”
