Thin Lizzy - The Silver Collection [compilation] (2008) by Thin Lizzy (보컬) on maniadb.com

As I was goin' over the Cork and Kerry mountains.
I saw Captain Farrell and his money he was countin'.
I first produced my pistol and then produced my rapier.
I said stand o'er and deliver or the devil he may take ya.

Musha ring dum a do dum a da.
Whack for my daddy-o,
Whack for my daddy-o.
There's whiskey in the jar-o.

I took all of his money and it was a pretty penny.
I took all of his money and I brought it home to Molly.
She swore that she'd love me, never would she leave me.
But the devil take that woman for you know she tricked me easy.

Musha ring dum a do dum a da.
Whack for my daddy-o,
Whack for my daddy-o.
There's whiskey in the jar-o.

Being drunk and weary I went to Molly's chamber.
Takin' my money with me and I never knew the danger.
For about six or maybe seven in walked Captain Farrell.
I jumped up, fired off my pistols and I shot him with both barrels.

Musha ring dum a do dum a da.
Whack for my daddy-o,
Whack for my daddy-o.
There's whiskey in the jar-o.

Now some men like the fishin' and some men like the fowlin',
And some men like ta hear a cannon ball a roarin'.
Me? I like sleepin' specially in my Molly's chamber.
But here I am in prison, here I am with a ball and chain, yeah.

Musha ring dum a do dum a da.
Whack for my daddy-o,
Whack for my daddy-o.
There's whiskey in the jar-o.

And I got drunk on whiskey-o
And I love, I love, I love, I love, I love, I love my Molly-o.

One, two
One, two, three, four

The writing on the wall showed the scandal
Pointed out the victim of the vandal
The lady was upset by the angle
Scratch your back and hot to handle

I'm gonna creep up on you
I'm gonna creep up on you
I'm gonna creep up on you
I'm gonna gonna

You're sly, you're slick, you're sleek, you're outstanding
My legs are week, my heart, it beats, it's pounding
Soon you're gonna weep in your sleepless surrounding
`Cause I'm the one taking you down for grounding

I'm gonna creep up on you
I'm gonna creep up on you
I'm gonna creep up on you
I'm gonna gonna

Little lady let me take a little bit of your love

Uh
Betty was worried about the lover that she has married
and she didn't know what to do
He'd been hit by a hammer on the head and he lay dead
an' all her worst fears had come true

{Chorus}
Call the police
Call the police
Call the police
Call the police

Johnny was a joker and a very heavy smoker
and he never ever broke the law
Thin Miss Lizzy was a-kept very busy
and sometimes very dizzy, we knew what for

{repeat chorus}
And take 'em all away
Lock 'em up
{repeat chorus}
{repeat chorus}
{repeat chorus}
{repeat chorus}

Louie was a loner and a big time Al Capone-er
doin' all his dipping from the door
He knew a shady dealer who had done a dirty DJ,
the sooner he could even the score

{repeat chorus}

And lock 'em up
Help ya have a birthday, say
Take 'em all away

When we were kids he used to go over the back wall into old Dan's scrapyard
Into the snooker hall where most us kids were barred
An' into the Roxy and the Stella where film stars starred
That's where me and Hopalong an' Roy Rogers got drunk and jarred
And we might have been the saviour of the men,
the captured captain in the devil's demon den
And we might have been the magic politician in some kind of tricky position
Like an old, old, old master musician we kept on wishin'
We was headed for the number one hit country again

{Chorus}
And it's true
True blue
Irish blue
And it's true
True blue
And sometimes it reminds me of you

There's an old photograph of Dan that I wish you could-a seen
Of him and the boys posed, standing in St. Stephen's Green
Ya see, they were a part of the great freedom dream
But they were caught and detained and are locked inside the frame
of the photograph
And he might have been the clever con, the good samaritan, the rassclaut man
An' he might have been the loaded gun, the charlatan of the tap dancin' fan
But like an old pioneer from outer Afghanistan,
headed for the number one hit country again

{repeat chorus}

Old Dan in a raincoat hums the very, very, very special notes
of a long lost favorite melody
It reminds him of a love affair when he was young and did not care
And how he parted so soft, so sadden
And he might have been the laughing cavaliero, the wise old commanchero
Ow, the desparate desparado, the good looking Randolph Valentino,
the gigolo from Glasgow
But like an old, old hunter of the female buffalo,
he's headed for the number one hit country again

{repeat chorus}
And it's true
True blue
Irish blue
True blue
Irish blue
And it's true
It's so true
Ummm, it's true
I swear I've said it
Swear I've said it
I swear I said it
I swear it's true
And it's true
True blue
Oh, its Irish blue
And it's true...

Put up, Baby Face
I love your lipstick, Baby Face,
it makes me all shades of red
Give me wild while you do to me one,
make me hot when I should be sleeping in my bed
I love your big eyes, Baby Face,
they seem to suggest much more than you say
I love the mark in your secret place, oow Baby Face
Love is like a peppermint machine, that's green, it's green
I love your hair down, Baby Face,
and I can picture ya as you do, oow, with your fingers running through
I love ya, Baby Face,
the way you bite your lips, ooo...ow!
How 'bout (the) Baby Face? {repeat 17 times}

Have you ever had your dreams broken?
It really messes up your heart
You want to stop right there
And go right back to the start

You got to leave the town you're living in
Oh I'm leaving, I'm leaving on the next train
My dreams have been broken
I don't think I'll ever be the same

It's a bad, bad feeling when all the things
That you've worked for just don't seem to turn out right
Well this happened to me last night
I woke up this morning and said I must be going

You see my dreams have been broken
I don't think I have
The strength to carry on
So I'll catch the next train southbound

I don't want no pity
Not from you or anyone
It's just my dreams been broken
And I got to tell someone before I go crazy

I'll be leaving
I'll be leaving
On that next train going southbound
Yes, I'll be leaving on that next train

You see my dreams been broken
And I just can't
Take the pain
I've got to move on

You see my dreams been broken
And I don't have
The strength
To carry on

Buffalo Gal,
you've had your fun
Your button's undone
and the time's right for slaughter
Buffalo Gal
You're thirsty and there's no more water
Like the lamb on the altar
And it's sad to see you looking down and feeling blue
Try your best to get on up and see it through
In a while you might smile and see the sun
Oww, the day has begun

{
}
And Buffalo Gal,
they're closing down the old dance hall
Ummm, Buffalo Gal,
what we gonna do now?

Buffalo Gal,
due to these circumstances
there's no more dances
Buffalo gal,

Buffalo
all your chances of further romances
will have to be nil
'til I can get it sung
Is a shame your only claim to fame is Jessie James
You know his middle name
That's very strange
Stranger, you knew a friend called the Friendly Ranger
Oh, ya shared the danger

Buffalo Gal,
you must try a big step
You've got a big jump ahead
Buffalo gal,
the show left town
spreading sunshine all around
And it's bad to see ya, ooh, lookin' blue
Dry your eyes and I'll apologise for all the lies
Try a smile and in a while, just in a while
you'll be smiling through

Ooh, Buffalo Gal,
they're closin' down the old dance hall
Buffalo {

And Buffalo Gal,
oh, you look so good somehow
Buffalo {

Oh Buffalo Gal,
oh, that's such a pretty dress
Buffalo {

Buffalo Gal,
the show left town
Buffalo {
8 times} Gal, Gal

Buffalo Gal,
take a picture
of Buffalo Gal

After our affair
I swore that I'd leave Dublin
And in that line I'd left behind
The years, the tears, the memories and you
In Dublin
At the quays friends come and say farewell
We'd laugh and joke and smoke
And later on the boat
I'd cry over you
In Dublin
How can I leave the town that brings me down
That has no jobs
Is blessed by God
And makes me cry
Dublin
And at sea with flowing hair
I'd think of Dublin
Of Grafton Street and Derby Square
And those for whom I really care and you
In Dublin
