lyrics
He gets up to the bar, just to contemplate a drink
His first one’s a cider, let’s have a little think
His second one’s a red wine or maybe it’s a rum
Well I’ll have a little drink before I come undone
You know he’s tipsy, dipsy, you’ve heard it all before
he’s tipsy, dipsy, he’ll soon be on the floor
you know he’s tipsy, dipsy, drinks like ten men
and when tomorrow morning comes, we’ll I’ll be back again
fol deedah, fol deedah, fol deedah
fol de hey fol de ho, fol de alley alley oh! Hey!
It’s early in the morning, she’s sober as a judge
She gotta go to town, but she doesnae bear a grudge
They say whiskey is the devil and it’s absolutely fine
Coz she’s off up to the bar for another glass of wine
You know she’s tipsy, dipsy, you’ve heard it all before
she’s tipsy, dipsy, she’ll soon be on the floor
you know she’s tipsy, dipsy, drinks like ten men
and when tomorrow morning comes, we’ll I’ll be back again
fol deedah, fol deedah, fol deedah
fol de hey fol de ho, fol de alley alley oh! Hey!
Well all the fine ladies and gents are sitting here
Another grand occasion for the drinking of the beer
Another fine occasion and of that there is no doubt
So dance a jig, have a swig and watch the doors on your way out
Well we’re tipsy, dipsy I’ve heard it all before
We’re tipsy, dipsy soon be on the floor
We’re tipsy, dipsy, drink like ten men
When tomorrow morning comes, well I’ll be back again
fol deedah, fol deedah, fol deedah
fol de hey fol de ho, fol de alley alley oh! Hey!
Well the auld time religion, well that’s my philosophy
In times of great need, see the vicar for a tea
In times of for pleasure and for laughter and for sin
Well it’s down the rub a dub for another pint of gin
Well we’re tipsy, dipsy, we’ve heard it all before
We’re tipsy, dipsy, we’ll soon be on the floor
We’re tipsy, dipsy, we drink like ten men
When tomorrow morning comes, well I’ll be back again
When tomorrow morning comes, well I’ll be back again
When tomorrow morning comes, well I’ll be back again
Amen
