I(?) had clear eyes and my smile never failed. All of my brothers that I met on the way, they were drinking by night, they were drinking by day. Restore to my eyes what was clear and was bright, come and take me out drinking tonight...oh come and take me out drinking tonight. that is all i can remember. anyone know this song? |

Are you sure it's right? And btw, here's how to make a hyperlink {blue clicky} on Mudcat: 1.Copy the URL {Internet address} you want by highlighting that URL {in this case, in your message, but sometimes in that longish rectangle box at the top of your page. 2.Then copy that URL by using the copy icon or clicking on to file a the far left top of the page. 3.Then once you've copied the Internet address, click on the "make a blue clicky" words down the bottom of this box. And follow those instructions. Try it. You'll like it! :o) Best wishes, Azizi |

"Ah Mister McEwen you will be my ruin" I say, but I don't really mind And all of my brothers that I met on the way They were drinking by night and they were drinking by day Ah restore to my eyes what was clear and was bright And Honey take me out drinking tonight, Honey take me out drinking tonight Oh I'm still smiling through, though there's stains on my shoes The right is heavy and the left it is light And if it's left up to you then I know what you'd do Honey take me out drinking tonight Honey take me out drinking tonight |
