[D]When I wake up, ye I know I'm going to be,
I'm [G]going to be the man who [A]wakes up next to [D]you.
When I go out, ye I know I'm going to be,
I'm [G]going to be the man who [A]goes out next to [D]you.
An if I get drunk, ye I know I'm going to be,
I'm [G]going to be the man who [A]gets drunk next to you.
And if I ever, ye I know I'm going to be,
I'm going to [G]be the man whoes [A]hammering into [D]you.
Chorus
[D]And I would drink 500 pints and [G]I would drink [A]500 more
Just to [D]be the man who drank 1000 [G]pints to fall down [A]at you're [D]door.
When I'm working, ye I know I'm going to be,
I'm going to be the man whoes working hard for you.
And when the money, goes in for the work I do,
I'm going to pass almost every shilling on to you.
And when I come home, ye I know I'm going to be,
I'm going to be the man who comes home to you.
And when I go out, ye I know I'm going to be,
I'm going to be the man whose going out with you.
And I would drink 500 pints and I would drink 500 more
Just to be the man who drank 1000 pints to fall down at you're door.
And when I'm lonely, ye I know I'm going to be,
I'm going to be the man whose lonely without you.
When I'm dreaming, ye I know I'm going to dream.
Dream about the time when I'm with you.
When I go out, ye I'm know I'm going to be,
I'm going to be the man whose coming home to you.
And I would drink 500 pints and I would drink 500 more
Just to be the man who drank 1000 pints to fall down at you're door.

Richie Kavanagh songs
Rev'er On The Corners - Richie Kavanagh
I never had a rally car since or before,
Like the mark 2 Escort, that I bought in '84
She was almost 10 years auld and seen better days
You'd rev'er on the corners, and drive her straight side ways.
Rev're rev'er rev'er on the corners and driver her straight side ways
You'd rev'er on the corners, and drive her straight side ways.
Rev're rev'er rev'er on the corners and driver her straight side ways
You'd rev'er on the corners, and drive her straight side ways.
The first time that I saw her I knew what I dad to do,
Strip her down compleatly, and build her up brand new,
She was the squarest version, that appered in '75.
The greatest car ever made, be the holy man alive.
Rev're rev'er rev'er on the corners and driver her straight side ways
You'd rev'er on the corners, and drive her straight side ways.
Rev're rev'er rev'er on the corners and driver her straight side ways
You'd rev'er on the corners, and drive her straight side ways.
You're a good one Johnny, a good one, she's looking quare well now lad.
That's right now shey's going quare well, she's going like a clock.
They had a Middleton Engin, it is a 2.4
With a Wber Carburettor, sure you couldn't ask for more.
She has a great back axle and brand new Coney Shocks,
A sturdy 6 speed gear box, that I call ''The Auld Long Box''
Rev're rev'er rev'er on the corners and driver her straight side ways
You'd rev'er on the corners, and drive her straight side ways.
Stay With Her Johnny.
