[Em]On the first day of March it was raining
It was raining worse than anything that[Am] I have ever seen
I drank
ten pints of beer and I[G] cursed all the people there
And I wish that all this raining would stop falling down on [Em]me
And
it’s[G] lend me ten pounds, I’ll buy you a [D]drink
And [G]mother wake me[D] early in the[Em] morning
At
the time I was working for a landlord
And he was the meanest bastard that you have ever seen
And to lose a single penny
would grieve him awful sore
And he was a miserable b------ and a bitch’s bastard’s w----
And it’s
lend me ten pounds, I’ll buy you a drink
And mother wake me early in the morning
I recall we took care
of him one sunday
We got him out the back and we broke his f----- balls
And maybe that was dreaming and maybe that was
real
But all I know is I left that place without a penny or f--- all
And it’s lend me ten pounds, I’ll
buy you a drink
And mother wake me early in the morning
But now I’ve the most charming of verandahs
I
sit and watch the junkies, the drunks, the pimps, the w----
Five green bottles sitting on the floor
I wish to christ,
I wish to christ
That I had fifteen more
And it’s lend me ten pounds, I’ll buy you a drink
And
mother wake me early in the morning
And it’s lend me ten pounds, I’ll buy you a drink
And mother wake me
early in the morning
