Last night I went out with the boys And oh what a dirty night too Got home at three and it's easy to see The kind of reception the wife's given me How long I've been pulling this bell Is really a subject for doubt I must have been here now for - oh wait a bit Now let's try to work the thing out. Chorus: It was three o' clock in the morning When I landed home last night It was four o' clock in the morning When I kicked the door for spite It was five o' clock in the morning When the cabman I tried to bilk Now I'm going to wait until half-past eight And be taken in with the milk. I've knocked at the door for five hours The wife must have heard me by now If she's in bed - she sleeps just overhead And I've knocked sufficient to wake up the dead Sh! I've got an idea at last I think this will wake her all right And yell out this Chorus:with me once again Now, come on, once more, all your might, Chorus: |
