Subject: RE: Drumcree 2003 - The Return!
Ah, man dear, there'll be none of thon oul' crack this year … not after last! … listen now till I sing ye
Isaac he was smit by love (heave away, haul away)
For his Aussie turtle-dove (bound for South Australia)
CHORUS
Fear ye God and Honour Kings (heave away, haul away)
Heave away now hear me sing (bound for South Australia)
Isaac div into the say
Like an eel he made his way
CHORUS
Isaac spied an ocean whale
Caught that whale-fish by the tail
CHORUS
Water-skied in thon whale's wake
Get a move on for God's sake
CHORUS
Thanked the whale-fish for the lift
A quare bit closer to his shift
CHORUS
Isaac did the oul' front-crawl
Through the South Atlantic squall
CHORUS
Isaac rounded oul' Good Hope
Isaac cursed the Roman Pope
CHORUS
Isaac swum then on his back
Anything for a bit of crack
CHORUS
Isaac met a crocodile
On its back for the last ten miles
CHORUS
Isaac thanked the Aussie croc
Then he got an awful shock
CHORUS
Ali she was houlin' out
When she said her love was not in doubt
CHORUS
Isaac, lovesick, wore a frown
Swam back home to Portydown
CHORUS
Isaac's home now from the sea
Ne'er again to leave Drumcree
CHORUS
Isaac's home now in his tent
All his fire and passion spent
CHORUS
Ike will find some Orange lass
And soon his grief will surely pass
CHORUS
Together they will be content
Living in their two-man tent
CHORUS
And Ike will soon forget the blade
That won his heart and then betrayed
CHORUS
No better than a quisling, she
Who lives in far-off Austrailyee
CHORUS
No better she, the boul' deceiver
Than those who'd sell us down the river
There y'are now! Put thon in your pipe and smoke it!
