Thread Name: Lyr Req: The Pub with No Beer -- extra verses
Subject: RE: Help pse - Extra verses for Pub with no beer
The version the Dubliners recorded is virtually word for word the 1956 Townsville version above, but the swaggy verse is replaced by:

There's a dog on the v'randah, for his master he waits
But the boss is inside, drinking wine with his mates
He cowers with terror and he cringes with fear
It's no place for a dog, in a pub with no beer

I'm not totally sure about that third line, I'll check it when I get home.

WassaiL! V
