Maloney Wants a Drink

Lyrics

[Verse 1] When Eve was in the garden, Adam climbed an apple tree He went aloft up to the top, to see what he could see He gazed in awe for what he saw, for it made the poor man grieve For Patrick John Maloney stood there, whispering to Eve [Chorus] "Come kiss me love, and miss me love and cry your bitter tears My loving you'll remember now for many, many years Be happy love, be satisfied, I left you in the pink There's many a man may want a bride Maloney wants a drink" [Verse 2] Salome danced for Paddy, taking off her seven veils Salome said, "Maloney, that's a trick that never fails" Maloney put Salome's oily clothing in a sack "I'll run along now to the pawn, and bring your bundle back" [Chorus] "Come kiss me love, and miss me love and cry your bitter tears My loving you'll remember now for many, many years Be happy love, be satisfied, I left you in the pink There's many a man that wants a bride Maloney wants a drink" [Verse 3] From London to Nebraska, and from Glasgow to Hong Kong From Cardiff to Alaska, from Peking to Saigon Ah, wherever girls are lonely, I know that in his role Ah, it's there you'll find Maloney, a waiting to console [Chorus] "Ah, come kiss me love, and miss me love and cry your bitter tears My loving you'll remember now for many, many years Be happy love, be satisfied, I left you in the pink There's many a man that wants a bride Maloney wants a drink"
