willie goggin's hat - jack hardy lyrics

Loading...

met him on the k!llorglin road
thinking mine was a heavy load
said to stop and rest awhile
long enough to find your smile
said i don’t know this and i don’t know that
but i know what’s under willie goggin’s hat

chorus:
and if it ain’t broke don’t fix it
but how many of us ain’t broke
and how many of us ain’t died
a thousand broken hearted lives?
and how many of us, amen
ain’t got a broken heart to mend?

and i may be a tinker and i may be a fool
but i’ll fix anything as good as new
i can fix anything but the golden rule
for gold can only fill a tooth
long as i’ve got the price of a pint
my hands are rough but i can sleep at night

i learned years ago and years since then
there’s no such thing as a common man
don’t work for pay, get paid for work
and on the day i forgot these words
i lost the play and i played a part
and i lost the gift of a golden heart

there are those that always buy things new
and those that always must make do
here’s to mary-margaret and maureen
and all the folks from cahirciveen
who’d give you the shirt off their back
and gave me willie goggin’s hat
