I'll drive the Spaniards from the isl
And SEND them back to SPAIN
Twill be no Spanish bull fight
With a gallant mastadore,
I'll leave the isle wet with blood
Yes drenched with Spanish gore.
But my lofty aspirations
i must bid them all good bye,
For time is rolling on, you know,
And bedtime's drawing nigh.

And my head begins to nod,
And in the morning 1 must go
To roofing up the sod.

Where dishes are all clean.

Nor haunt my visions sweet,
No mice to scamper round my bed
Or nibbly at my feet.
