Sean O'Neill - The Wife's Lament lyrics



Come and listen, let me tell you about my darling Andy,
He's tall and fair and slightly randy;
At drinking porter he is quite handy.
He loves me like a devil on a Sunday!

CHORUS: O-roy-o and a diddle-lum dandy
I want a man who can tickle me fancy,
Bring me flowers and cherry brandy, [CLAP, CLAP, CLAP]
And loves me night and morning.

Monday night and his head is achin'
It's down to the pub for a cure he's a-makin'
Doesn't he know that my heart is breakin'?
We never makes love on a Monday!

Tuesday night and he gets no bolder;
Pains in his back and his neck and his shoulder,
Weather's wet and it's getting colder...
What an awful day is Tuesday!

Wednesday passes, very dreary.
Thursday night and he's feelin' weary.
Friday night though I am quite cheery:
Two more days till Sunday!

Saturday night and he's struts and prances
Down to the pub like a madman he dances!
12 o'clock and I've lost my chances!
He's sleepin' in the parlor.

Sunday night and he's feeling cozy
A man and his lass by the fireside rosy;
That's the lot, though you're far too nosy!
What a wonderful day is Sunday!
