The Langer Song Words & Guitar Chords In The Key Of G Major
By Tim O'Riordan & Natural Gas Have[G] you seen the young[D] man, The[G] drunken auld[C] lout, [G]Roaring and[D] bawling and[G] spilling his[D] stout, And in[G] everyone's busi[D]ness, You'll[G] first see his[C] snout, Down in[G] Cork, he'd be[D] known as a[G] Langer! L[D]anger,[G] Langer [C]Down in[G] Cork, he'd be[D] known as a[G] Langer! Féach an phleice amach romhainn, ag bladairt trína thóin Níl gaelinn ag éine, dár leis, ach é féin Tá aige fomhraíocht sár-bhinn, Is gramadach fíor chrinn, I gCorcaigh, gan dabht, sé an Langer! An langer, an langer I gCorcaigh, gan dabht, sé an Langer! From Mitchelstown to Cape Clear, You'll be welcome down here, For there's plenty of scenery, Music and beer, But avoid the rugby weekend in Kinsale, Cos every year without fail, The town gets infested with Langers! Langers, langers Ah the town gets infested with Langers! In two thousand and five, Culture will thrive, All along the green banks of the Lee (good man George!) But no matter what, Even if you arrive on your yacht, We'll tolerate absolutely nobody acting the Langer! (Certainly not in Crosshaven!) Langer, langer There'll be nobody acting the Langer On the Lee and the Nore This auld game we adore Sure we follow our teams anywhere But what we'd like to know Is why do all the good match tickets go? Ending up in the hands of some Langer! Langer, langer Ending up in the hands of some Langer! So there was me song, I didn't keep you too long, For now ye all know one more word of Cork slang, And while there's meat on me bones, I hope I'll never be known, As a typical, home-grown Cork Langer! Langer, Langer As a typical home-grown Cork Langer! |
