JOHNNY GO EASY (Ron Kavana) 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. Cho : Johnny, go easy. You're driving me crazy. Johnny, go easy. I'm losing me 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. Though I tried for to bed her, to woo her, to wed 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. [Above as recorded by Ron Kavana on "Home Fire," 1991. Additional verse:] She drank too much porter and I could not court her. She had one more pint and passed out on the floor. With no wits about her, she spewed it all out her. I wish she were sober like she was before. Ron Kavana, with an added verse by Mike Nicholsen and Zack Smith @drink @seduction filename[ GOEASY XX |
