Lyrics
Roaring Boys (Part One)
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Paddy is waiting in Drogheda town
For the train to carry him south
Another drunken night on the town
Messing around
The Roaring Boys, the roaring boys
It's all the same to the roaring boys
They come into town just to make some noise
Oh the life of the roaring boys
Drinking and fighting and acting the fool
Shouting insults and thinking you're cool
Telling lies and believing they're true
Who's fooling who
(Chorus rpt:)
Oh the life of the roaring boys.
