daoirí farrell - there’s the day lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
a fitful sleep the landlord had
‘mid din and chattin’, not of his choosin’
his daughter ‘til the morning light
abused all those who sit there boozin’

[chorus]
and there’s the day, it’s not the day
oh it is the day, the night is over
it’s not the day, whate’er you say
and it’s only the moon to guide the rover

[verse 2]
come landlord join us in the snug
all drowsy thoughts of slumber scornin’
there’s not one drop of jar nor jug
that we’ll not ’ave drained before the dawning

[chorus]
and there’s the day, it’s not the day
oh it is the day, the night is over
it’s not the day, whate’er you say
and it’s only the moon to guide the rover

[verse 3]
i’ll stay in bed the landlord said
for if i get up, you’ll go quicker
so drink your fill of swipes and swill
oh, but not one drop of my good liquor
[chorus]
and there’s the day, it is the day
oh it’s not the day, the night is over
it’s not the day, whate’er you say
and it’s only the moon to guide the rover

[verse 4]
oh this landlord has my socks and shoes
this tavern has my coat and britches
by morning i’ve no more to lose
and i’ll go and sleep among the ditches

[chorus]
oh there’s the day, it’s not the day
oh it is the day, the night is over
it’s not the day, whate’er you say
and it’s only the moon to guide the rover

[verse 5]
but i’ve money left to treat a friend
here’s my last guinea upon the table
so let’s tilt the barrels upon their ends
and lets be drinking whilest we’re able

[chorus]
so there’s the day, it’s not the day
oh it is the day, the night is over
it’s not the day, whate’er you say
and it’s only the moon to guide the rover
