Lyrics The Crack Was Ninety In The Isle Of Man - Live In Dublin / Remastered 2020 - Christy Moore
Weren't
we
the
rare
oul
stock
Spent
the
evenin'
gettin'
locked
In
the
Ace
o'
Hearts
Where
the
high
stools
were
engaging
Over
the
Butt
Bridge,
down
by
the
dock
The
boat
she
sailed
at
five
o'clock
Hurry
lads,
says
Whack
Or
before
we're
there
we'll
all
be
back
Carry
him
if
you
can
The
craic
was
ninety
in
the
Isle
of
Man
Before
we
reached
the
Alexander
Base
The
ding
dong
we
did
surely
raise
In
the
bar
of
the
ship
we
had
great
sport
As
the
boat
she
sailed
out
of
the
port
Landed
up
in
the
Douglas
Head
Enquired
for
a
vacant
bed
The
dining
room
we
soon
got
shown
By
a
decent
woman
up
the
road
Lads,
eat
it
if
ye
can
The
craic
was
ninety
in
the
Isle
of
Man
Next
morning
we
went
for
a
ramble
round
And
saw
the
sights
of
Douglas
town
Then
we
went
for
a
mighty
seisiun
In
a
pub
they
call
Dick
Darbys
All
got
drunk
by
half
past
three
To
sober
up
we
went
swimmin'
in
the
sea
Back
to
the
digs
for
the
spruce
up
And
while
waitin'
for
the
fry
We
all
drew
up
our
plan
The
craic
was
ninety
in
the
Isle
of
Man
That
night
we
went
to
the
Texas
bar
Came
back
down
by
horse
and
car
Met
Big
Jim
and
all
went
in
To
drink
some
wine
in
Yeats'
The
Liverpool
girls
it
was
said
Were
all
to
be
met
in
the
Douglas
Head
McShane
was
there
in
a
tie
and
shirt
Them
foreign
girls
he
was
tryin'
to
flirt
Sayin'
here,
girls,
im
your
man
The
craic
was
ninety
in
the
Isle
of
Man
Whacker
fancied
his
good
looks
On
an
Isle
of
Man
woman
he
was
struck
The
Liverpoool
lad
was
by
her
side
And
he
throwin'
the
jar
into
her
Whacker
thought
he'd
take
a
chance
He
asked
the
quare
one
out
to
dance
Around
the
floor
they
stepped
it
out
And
to
Whack
it
was
no
bother
Everythin'
was
goin'
to
plan
The
craic
was
ninety
in
the
Isle
of
Man
The
Isle
of
Man
woman
fancied
Whack
Yer
man
stood
there
till
his
mates
came
back
Whack
they
all
whacked
into
Whack
Whack
was
landed
on
his
back
The
police
force
arrived
as
well
Banjoed
a
couple
of
them
as
well
Landed
up
in
the
Douglas
jail
Until
the
Dublin
boat
did
sail
Deported
every
man
The
craic
was
ninety
in
the
Isle
of
Man
