JOHNNY GO EASY

Meself and the mystery met in a boozer
The Stag's Head in Camden one cold rainy night
We had a few jars and the craic it was mighty
Till I up and asked for a bed for the night.

Chorus:
Johnny go easy, You're driving me crazy
Johnny go easy, I'm losing my mind
Me senses are sunk in an ocean of porter
and a mixture of whiskey and tawny port wine.

The days went by, the romance developed
To loosen her garter was my one desire
All efforts frustrated, frustration dictated
a few pints and large ones to light up her fire.

Chorus

Though I tried for to bed her, to wed her, to woo her
She wouldn't lay down between me and the wall
So to charm her, not harm her I tried to disarm her
with gallons of gargle and spirits and all

Chorus



My friend Mike whom I got these from wrote an added verse with a friend but I didn't mention that I was posting these, so I e-mailed him again for permission to post his verse.

Slán,
Rich
