Donegal Express

Shane MacGowan & The Popes

Who dares to speak of Donegal

You get kicks in the bars and kicks in the balls

The harp that played in Tara's halls

Is burning on the dump

Virginia is a gin town

Belturbot is a sin town

And all the boys from Skintown

Are in England on the lump

Got pissed in Letterkenny

With darlin' sportin' Jenny

Spent me very last penny

And we made it in the press

The husband caught me in the bed

Tried to shoot me in the head

Had to swim the stream to get

The Donegal Express



Kahaya! You fuck!

Come Hell of high water

I might have fucked your Missus

But I never fucked your daughter

Fol-diddle-dee-ahhh

Fol-diddle-dee-ahhh

Fol-diddle-dee-ahhh

Fol-diddle-dee-ahhh



As sure as I'm Father Emmett

I've a King Dong down me Semmett

As any girl will tell you

From Cavan down to Clare

Back in sweet Virginia

In the toilet with Lavinia

I nearly fucked her brains out

And tore her party dress

A shit, a shave, a shower

And half a pint of powers

Then off again to get on board

The Donegal Express



Kahaya! You fuck!

Come Hell of high water

I might have fucked your Missus

But I never fucked your daughter

Fol-diddle-dee-ahhh

Fol-diddle-dee-ahhh

Fol-diddle-dee-ahhh

Fol-diddle-dee-ahhh



Kahaya! You fuck!

Come Hell of high water

I might have fucked your Missus

But I never fucked your daughter

Fol-diddle-dee-ahhh

Fol-diddle-dee-ahhh

Fol-diddle-dee-ahhh

Fol-diddle-dee-ahhh
