The Dubliners, Rory Gallagher - Barley and Grape Rag lyrics
[The Dubliners, Rory Gallagher - Barley and Grape Rag lyrics]
Well, I don't care if I get arrested
'Cause tonight they'll need more
Than a ball and chain
I don't care just who's interested
I'm coming into town just the same
I've been so alone, I've been feeling blue
I think I need a little beer or two
Be my friend, tell me where the place is
Where the whiskey flows and the
Dices roll 'til dawn?
My baby's done me wrong you
Must have guessed it
My heart's so low I think it must be told
That I don't wanna know where East or Wеst is
'Cos pretty soon I won't feel the cold
When I'm walking down Main Street
Feeling no pain
Along comеs a cop, he can take my name
And explain to me what a federal case is
I'm mixing the barley with the grape again
Bright city lights make me feel alright
I'm right or wrong and tomorrow never comes
I don't care if I get investigated
And the city fathers they all black my name
I'm pretty sure you can smell the traces
For tomorrow morning, I'll take all the blame
I've been feeling bad, I've been feeling blue
I think I need a little whiskey or two
God, brother
You look like you could do with it too
(That's true, Rory)
Tonight I'll sleep on a walking-cane
Bright city lights, make me feel alright
I'm right or wrong and tomorrow never comes
I don't care if I get arrested
'Cause tonight they'll need more than
A ball and chain
I don't care just who's interested
I'm coming into town just the same
I've been feeling alone and
I've been feeling blue
I think I need a little drink or two
Hey, be my friend, tell me where the place is
Where the whiskey flows and the
Dices roll 'til dawn
I don't care if I get arrested
'Cause tonight they'll need more than
A ball and chain
I don't care just who's interested
I'm coming into town just the same
I've been so alone, I've been feeling blue
I think I need a little drink or two
Be my friend, tell me where the place is
Where the whiskey flows and the
Dices roll 'til dawn?
'Cause tonight they'll need more
Than a ball and chain
I don't care just who's interested
I'm coming into town just the same
I've been so alone, I've been feeling blue
I think I need a little beer or two
Be my friend, tell me where the place is
Where the whiskey flows and the
Dices roll 'til dawn?
My baby's done me wrong you
Must have guessed it
My heart's so low I think it must be told
That I don't wanna know where East or Wеst is
'Cos pretty soon I won't feel the cold
When I'm walking down Main Street
Feeling no pain
Along comеs a cop, he can take my name
And explain to me what a federal case is
I'm mixing the barley with the grape again
Bright city lights make me feel alright
