Green Ginger Wine Lyrics

After seeing the other tab here was slightly off I felt compelled to submit my
own. This is how i play the song and I'm fairly confident it's right. There might
be an instrumental section I missed but who really cares?
Enjoy, Olly.
N.C.
Oh kiss me Maggie & take me home,
For I sure dinnae feel like dyin? alone,
Gawn geez a shot, chuck a doggie a bone,
Or a penny for me rattlin? can,
D(let ring)
As sure as Christ it's a bitter pill,
But if you won't have me, yer sister will,
I'll cart me arse doon Surry Hills & call her out this evenin?,
Instrumental
Go on, go well, ye're no catch o? mine,
Yer clothes in rags, ye reek o? fags & old green ginger wine,
My sisters aye a leezie into the drinkin?, dogs & cards,
My poor departed Father couldn't flog her at the yards,
I'm a man o? some renown ?Jack the Lad? about the town,
We'll share a plate of oysters, crack the neck o? Billy Brown,
Sly grog & salty treats, I'll not grant yer wish,
I'm promised to the toll collector boy upon the bridge.
Like good whisky in bad wounds,
Like honey on a toothache, you'll never be mine,
Tho? we can dance, b'Jesus, we'll swing like the razors,
Of Kate Leigh & Tilly Devine.
Why wait until yer dancin? shoes are scuffed and in the bin?
I'll stitch my holey duds, scrape the whiskers from me chin,
We'll get ye down yer scarlet gown, I'll steal you somethin? blue,
I'd waltz off Millers point before I walk the aisle with you!
Wedding March
Like good whisky in bad wounds,
Like honey on a toothache, you'll never be mine,
Tho? we can dance, b'Jesus, we'll swing like the razors,
Of Kate Leigh & Tilly Devine.
Oh I'll sing you ?six ribbons?!
Aye when your ?three sheets?!
Yer drunken, brawlin? caterwaulin? echoes through the streets,
Y'know I'm not yet very old,
Sure it's poison when its cold,
And a dear old southerly belters sure to blow!
Like good whisky in bad wounds,
Like honey on a toothache, you'll never be mine,
Tho? we can dance, b'Jesus, we'll swing like the razors,
Of Kate Leigh & Tilly Devine.
