At the end of the day, 
I like a little drink 
To raise up me voice and sing 
And an hour or two with a fine, 
Brown brew and I'm ready for anything
At the Cross Keys Inn 
There were sisters four, 
The landlord's daughters fair
And every night when 
They'd turn out the light 
I would tiptoe up the stair...singin' 

[Chorus:]
One for the morning glory, 
Two for the early dew
Three for the man who will stand his round
And four for the love of you, me girl, 
Four for the love of you

I got the call from a foreign shore 
To go and fight the foe 
And I thought no more 
Of the sisters four, 
But still I was sad to go
I sailed away on a ship, 
The Morning Glory was her name
And we'd all fall down 
When the rum went 'round, 
Then get up and start again

[Chorus]

I bore once more for 
My native shore, 
Farewell to the raging seas
And the Cross Keys Inn, 
It was beckonin', 
And me heart was filled with glee
For there on the shore 
Were the sisters four 
With a bundle upon each knee
There were three little girls 
And a bouncing boy, 
And they all looked just like me... 

[Chorus]
