I got me girl, I got me a gal She looks oh so sweet all wrapped up in her gown No matter the weather, she's always around To lend me a smile or shoot me a frown Whenever I come home with drink up me eyes She's there to tell me off with a boot up me ass! Girls, girls! We can't live without! One minute we miss em, the next we want out! We hold em, we squeeze em, we twirl them about! And we just can not wait to get out on the town! I've got me a missus, she lives in the city She may fool around, oh but damn she's so pretty! For just 20 cents and a dollar I get To tell her my problems and all my laments Sometimes I'll get lucky, but you know it's a shame 'Cause each time I do it's thirty dollars down the drain! Well unlike my friend here i've no need to pay One of my ladies she lives by the bay Her husband's a sailor much like you and me But she loves me much more, and I know she'd decree But my love for her is fickle, I quickly get bored One lady's not enough, I always need more! Girls, girls! We can't live without! One minute we miss em, the next we want out! We hold em, we squeeze em, we twirl them about! And we just can not wait to get out on the town! One minute my brothers, O let me confess! For my dearest lady is not like the rest! She's nie my lover, though I love her so dear, She feeds me and clothes me and brings me good cheer My lads she's my mother, and you best not give jeers If you dare insult her I'll rip out your ears! Well if that's an offer, then i'll take you up! My wife, though I love her, she never shuts up! My first wife she nagged till her last dying day And I fear that my new one is doing the same! So to save me from another long rant about chores Please acknowledge my motive for calling your mom a whore! Girls, girls! We can't live without! One minute we miss em, the next we want out! We hold em, we squeeze em, we twirl them about! And we just can not wait to get out on the town! Girls, girls! We can't live without! One minute we miss em, the next we want out! We hold em, we squeeze em, we twirl them about! And we just can not wait to get out on the town!
