The Dubliners - Malony Want's A Drink

Malony want's a drink

When Eve was in the garden Adam climbed an apple tree
He went aloft up to the top to see what he could see
He gazed in awe for what he saw; it made the poor man grieve
Ah, Patrick John Maloney stood there whispering to Eve

Chorus:
Come kiss me love, and miss me love, and dry your bitter tears
My loving you'll remember now for many, many years
Be happy love; be satisfied I left you in the pink
There's many a man may want a bride; Malony wants a drink

Salome danced for Paddy taking off her seven veils
Salome said Maloney that's a trick that never fails
Maloney put Salome's only clothing in a sack
I'll run along now to the pawn and bring your bundle back

Chorus,

From London to Nebraska, and from Glasgow to Hong Kong
From Cardiff toA laska, from Peking to Saigon
Ah wherever the girls are lonely I know that in his role
Ah it's there you'll find Malony a waiting to console

Chorus.
