Aaahh, those were the days... The Crack was Ninety in the Caravan
Well weren't we the shower of bastards Spent the evenin' gettin' plastered With a carry-out of Bucky We were feeling mighty lucky Over the hedge and down by the tent Our drink all gone and the money spent ' Hurry boys, don't miss the crack Or before we're there we're all be back.' Drinkin' from a can, The crack was ninety in the caravan.
Before we reached Garvaghy Road Eamonn was ready to explode In the bar on the train he'd had great sport Eatin' pies and drinking port Landed up in the Drumcree site Enquiring for a pitch for the night Our tent was up but soon got stoned By a pack of spides from up the road 'Lads, fuck aff if yous can.' The crack was ninety in the caravan.
Next morning we went for a ramble round Viewed the sights of Portydown Then we went for a mighty session In a tent wi' a pile of beardies. We must have been drunk by half past nine So we opened some more Buckfast Wine Back to the tent for the spruce up And while waitin' for the fry We all drew up our plan. The crack was ninety in the caravan.
That night we went to the Session tent, Came back down in discontent Met the Chieftains and all went in To drink some wine in with Paisley Then Derek Bell it was said Was to be found there, aff his head. Shane was there in his suit and shirt. Them Corrs girls he was tryin' to flirt. Sayin', 'Here, girls, I'm your man.' The crack was ninety in the caravan.
Daniel fancied his good looks On a Portydown woman he was struck, But Eamonn Holmes was by her side And he throwin' the jar into her. Daniel thought he'd take a chance He asked the quare one out to dance Around the floor they stepped it out And to Dan it was no bother Everythin' was goin' to plan. The crack was ninety in the caravan.
The Portydown woman fancied Dan But he hadn't counted on alison Her and Dana fought for Daniel He was having so much fun. His mammy then arrived as well, Told them all to go to hell Took Daniel back to Donegal Before he'd had a go at all Grounded poor auld Dan. The crack was ninety in the caravan.
