THREE NIGHTS AND A SUNDAY

ch: Three nights and a Sunday double time
Three nights and a Sunday double time
I work aw day and I work aw night,
Tae hell wi' you Jack, I'm all right 1
Three nights and a Sunday double time

There's a fella doon the road that I avoid,
He's wan o' them they call the unemployed.
He says it's all because of me,
He canny get a job and I've got three.
Three nights and a Sunday double time.


The wife came tae the work the ither day,
Says she "We've anither wee one on the way."
Says I "No wonder you can laugh,
I've no' been hame for a year and a half."
Three nights and a Sunday double time.

I never miss the pub on a Friday night.
And there you'll always find me gay and bright.
You'll see me down at the Old Bay Horse,
I'm a weekend waiter there of course.
Three nights and a Sunday double time.

There's some will head for heaven when they die,
Tae find a Dunlopillo in the sky.
But I'll be going to the ither place,
For an idle life I couldny face.
Three nights and a Sunday double time.
