Maloney Wants A Drink (Album Version) - The Dubliners

作词：D Behan

作曲：D Behan

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 of what he saw it made the poor man grieve

For Patrick John Maloney stood there whispering to Eve

Ah 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 that wants a bride

Maloney wants a drink

Salome danced for Paddy taking off her seven veils

Salome said Maloney that's a trick that never fails

Malone put Salome's oily clothing in a sack

I'll run along now to the pawn and bring your bundle back

Ah 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 that wants a bride

Maloney wants a drink

From London to Nebraska and from Glasgow to Hong Kong

From Cardiff to Alaska from Peking to Saigon

Wherever girls are lonely I know that in his role

It's there you'll find Maloney a waiting to console

Ah 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 that wants a bride

Maloney wants a drink
