Dubliners - Monto lyrics

Oh if you've got a wingo, take her up to Ringo Where the waxies sing-o all the day. If you've had your fill of porter and you can't go any Further Just give your men the order, "Back to the quay" And take her up to Monto, Monto, Monto Take her up to Monto langeroo! To you Well you've heard of Butcher Foster, the dirty old Imposter He took his mot and lost her up in Furry Glen He first put on his bowler, then he bu*toned up his Trousers And he whistled for a growler and he said "My men" And take me up to Monto, Monto, Monto Take me up to Monto langeroo! To you Well you've heard of the Dublin Fusiliers, the dirty Old bamboozaliers They went and got the childer, one, two, three Marchin' from the Linen Hall, there's one for every Cannon ball And Vicky's goin' to send youse all o'er the sea But First go up to Monto, Monto, Monto First go up to Monto langeroo! To you Well Carry told him, "Skin the goat"; O'Donnell put him On the boat He never should have been afloat, the dirty skite It wasn't very sensible to tell on the Invincibles They stood up for the principals, day and night They're goin' up to Monto, Monto, Monto Goin' up to Monto langeroo! To you Now the czar of Russia, and the king of Prussia Landed in the Phoenix in a big balloon They asked the Police band to play the "The wearin' o' The Green" But the buggers in the depot didn't know the tune So they all went up to Monto, Monto, Monto They all went up to Monto langeroo! To you The Queen she came to call on us, she wanted to see all Of us, I'm glad she didn't fall on us, she's eighteen stone Well "Mr. Neill, Lord Mayor", says she, "Is this all You've got to show to me?" "why no ma'am, there's some more to see ? p?g mo thoin And he took her up to Monto, Monto, Monto He took her up to Monto, langeroo! To you Well if you've got a wingo, take her up to Ringo Where the waxies sing-o all the day. If you've had your fill of porter and you can't go any Further Just give your men the order, "Back to the quay" And take her up to Monto, Monto, Monto Take her up to Monto langeroo! To you
