BE-GORRIE, al wor sorry When the Ould Year died: An' aI says, "aI'll shtart to-morry, Like aI've always thried -- aI'll give yez all fair warnin' aI'll be shtartin' in the mornin' From the wakeness aI was born in -- When the Ould Year died." The year forninsht the pasht wan, When the Ould Year died, Says aI, "This is the lasht wan aI'll be filled -- wid pride." So says aI til Miss McCarty aI wor meetin' at the party, "Lave us both be drinkin' hearty!" When the Ould Year died. So we dined an' wined together, When the Ould Year died, An' agreed on health an' weather, An' the whule wurrld wide, An' says aI, -- "aI'm thinkin' very Much it's you aI'd like to marry." "Then," says she, "why don't you, Larry?"
