TIM O'BRIEN'S SONG
(Tune: "O'Reilly's Daughter")

Time O'Brien is my name
Drinking gin my occupation,
Shaggin' dames my claim to fame
Jesus Christ is my salvation.

(CHORUS)

Tiddley ay ay, tiddley ay oh,
Tiddley ay ay the one-eyed Reilly,
Rig-a-jig-jig, balls and all,
Rub-a-dub-dub, shag on.

Seated by the fireside
I was drinking gin and water,
Suddenly it came to mind
I'd like to shag old Reilly's daughter.

(REPEAT CHORUS AT WILL)

Up the stairs and into bed,
Suddenly I thro m' left leg over,
Nary a word the maiden said,
Laught like hell till the fun was over.

Down the stairs and in the street,
Who should I meet but the one-eyed Reilly,
Brace of pistols at his side,
Looking for the man who shagged his daughter.

Grabbed old Reilly by the neck
Stuck his head in a pail of water,
Jammed those pistols up his ass
A dam sight harder than I shagged his daughter
