paroles de chanson Easy and Slow - Ronnie Drew

It was down by Christ Church that I first met with Annie
A gentle young maiden but not a bit shy
She told me her father had come from Dungannon
And would take her back home in the sweet bye and bye

And what's that to any man, whether or no
Whether I'm easy, or whether I'm true
As I lifted her petticoat, easy and slow
And I tied up my sleeve for to buckle her shoe

All along Thomas Street, down to the Liffey
The sunlight was gone, and the evening grew dark
Down by kings bridge Bridge, and beGod in a jiffy
My arms were around her, beyond in the park

And what's that to any man, whether or no
Whether I'm easy, or whether I'm true
As I lifted her petticoat, easy and slow
And I tied up my sleeve for to buckle her shoe

In city city or country, a girl is a jewel
And well made for grippin', the most of the while
But any young fellow is really a fool
If he tries at the first time to go a bit far

And what's that to any man, whether or no
Whether I'm easy, or whether I'm true
As I lifted her petticoat, easy and slow
And I tied up my sleeve for to buckle her shoe

So if ever you go, to the town of Dungannon
You can search till your eyeballs are empty and blind
Be you sitting or walking or running
A girl like my Annie you never find

And what's that to any man, whether or no
Whether I'm easy, or whether I'm true
As I lifted her petticoat, easy and slow
And I tied up my sleeve for to buckle her shoe
