Then Campbell made answer and said with a smile "Sure, I long for to taste the strong ale of Carlisle" They called in the servants and started a dance They ordered the landlord to spare no expense They danced the next morning 'til 'twixt eight and nine And they called for their breakfast and afterwards wine They mounted their horses, alas and alack It dawned on the landlord they weren't coming back He said, "My dear Irishman, I am afraid That those three English jokers a trick on you played" "Never mind," says old Campbell, "If they've gone astray I've plenty of money, the reckoning to pay Just sit down beside me, and before that I go I'll teach you a trick that perhaps you don't know "I'll teach you a trick that's contrary to law Two kinds of whiskey from one cask to draw" The landlord being eager to learn of the plan Straighway to the cellar with Paddy, he ran He soon bore a hole in a very short space And he bade the landlord stick his thumb on then place He then bored another, "Place your other thumb here While I for a tumbler must run up the stairs" When Campbell was mounted and well out of sight The hostler came in in a terrible fright He hunted the house, high up and low down Half dead in the cellar, his master he found "Go and find that bold Irishman," loudly he cried "I fear he has vanished," the hostler replied He said, "My dear landlord, I am afraid That Campbell the drover, a trick on you played." @drink @carousal recorded by Margaret Christl and Ian Robb collected by Helen Creighton from Angelo Dornan of New Brunswick filename[ DROVCAMB SF ===DOCUMENT BOUNDARY Related Lyrics Random lyrics: Canine Eneuretic, Cannily Cannily, Cape Anne, Cape Cod Girls, Captain Hanley And Sweet Mazie, Captain Jinks Of The Horse Marines, Captain Ward, Captain Ward And The Rainbow, Captain Wedderburns Courtship, Captains Shanty, Card Song, Careless Love, Carmen, Carol For New Years Day, Carol Of The Bells, Carolina On My Mind, Carrion Crow, Carry It On, Casey Jones, Casey Jones The Union Scab, Castle Of Dromore, Cat Came Back, Cats Are Taking Over, Cats On The Rooftops, Cayman Island Anthem Text, Cecelia, Champion At Drivin Em Crazy, Chandlers Wife, Changes, Charlie Green Play That Thing, Charlie Is My Darling, Chastity Belt, Chatsworth Wreck, Cheerily Man, Cherry Tree Carol, Cheseapeake Gold, Chester, Chestnuts Roasting, Chicken On A Raft, Chickens Are Into The Tomatoes, Chickens In The Garden, Child Of The Railroad Engineer, Children Draw Guns, Children Go Where I Send Thee, Children Of Darkness, Chile Native Anthem Text, Chilly Scenes Of Winter, Chilly Winds, China Anthem Text, Chinee Bumboatman, Other Unknown song Lyrics 99 Bottles of Beer on the Wall Lyrics A Bird in a Gilded Cage Lyrics A Fenian Song Lyrics A Fool Such As I Lyrics A Friend Like You Lyrics A Hero of the Wrong War Lyrics A Horse Named Bill Lyrics A Hundred Years from Now Lyrics A Kangaroo Sat on an Oak Lyrics A Little Bit of Solitude Lyrics A Living Wage Lyrics ...Show All Other Artists Unknown Prophets Lyrics Unleashed Lyrics Unleashed Power Lyrics Unlimited Nation Lyrics Unlimited Sound Lyrics UNLOCO Lyrics Unlord Lyrics UNLV Lyrics Unni Wilhelmsen Lyrics Uno Svenningsson Lyrics All lyrics are property and copyright of their owners and are strictly for educational purposes only. lyricstrue.net Copyright © 2005-2007 All Rights Reserved., , Privacy policy
