O’Flaherty’s Farm
© Stan Loh & Ken Lee – January 2008
There’s a lass I know at Murphy’s Bar
Proudest gal in town
Her nose is always stickin’ in the air,
Like a princess from afar,
But something tells me that her heart is down,
Something in her stare,
Her eyes are glazed in grey, when I know they’re blue,
Why is she, in despair?
There in the corner while she’s sippin’ her beer,
Her tears began to flow,
Gave her my hankie and I lent my ear,
Why are you crying so?
Alas I’ve lost a true and faithful friend,
Someone dear to me,
But never mind I’ll go to O’Flaherty’s farm,
And find a new “baby”!
Bridge
Oh my God, how callous, modern young girls can be!
Her tears ain’t dry, my oh my, she’s needs new company!
Who or what will she find…at O’Flaherty’s farm?
Look here miss, you heartless gal, haven’t you any qualms?
I’ll have you know dear man I’m not that bad,
I’m not your stinkin’ ham.
You’ve got your thinkin’ wrong and it makes me mad,
Don’t give another damn,
The feelings for my dear departed friend,
Is real and oh so true
Just so you know about the love I lost,
It was collie “Blue”!
Bridge 2
Oh my God, silly me, accept my apology!
Now I know why you are off to O’Flaherty’s,
A pedigree, now it’s clear ‘tis what you’re seeking there,
I’m sorry miss, forgive me, I’ve been so unfair,
Outro
I’m sorry miss, forgive me, I’ve been so unfair.
