letra de uncle tommy - the rumjacks

Loading...

early one november me uncle tommy joined the army,
kitted him out for danger & ferried him o’er the sea,
he threw me o’er his shoulder, sang to me a dirty ditty,
telling me when i were older “you’ll be just like me”,

a half a bottle o’ whisky, tattoo of a pretty lady,
half a dozen havana’s & his aunties rosary,
a-thunderin’ oe’r the border, guns a-blazin’, h-lls a-raisin’,
“here i am ya b-st-rds, ye’ll no be havin’ me!”

(chorus)
tommy was a rifle, tommy was a razor,
tommy was a ramblin’ man,
a silver blade in the dyin’ shade,
oor tommy was a fightin’ man!

the following december he sent a card to auntie annie,
tellin’ her he were frozen half to death upon a hill,
sick o’ the sound o’ trash cans, kickin’ in doors on dear old ladies,
sick o’ the screamin’ babies, he had lost the bottle tae k!ll.

(chorus)
tommy was a rifle, tommy was a razor,
tommy was a ramblin’ man,
a silver blade in the dyin’ shade,
oor tommy was a fightin’ man!
tommy was a rifle, tommy was a razor,
tommy was a ramblin’ man,
a silver blade in the dyin’ shade,
oor tommy was a fightin’ man!

he earn’t his scars in german bars,
and breakin’ the hearts o’ the maids o’ norway,
trained his guns upon the huns,
and boxed the sons o’ proud old galway,
tommy was a rifle, tommy was a razor,
tommy was a ramblin’ man,
quick with a pound when yer luck was down,
oor tommy was a jerry can.

early one november me uncle tommy left the army,
stripped him o’ his regalia & ferried him o’er the main,
he took me by the shoulder, sang to me a dirty ditty,
“b-st-rd’s only love ye when ye’re shootin’ at yer ain!”
