INTRO:
    G  C    G      C      G
Goodmornin' Da, oh I'm in gaol.
  G     C    G      C       D
I don't need you to try for bail.
   C                 G
If I know Ma, she'll scream and wail,
        G              D              G
so just lock me up and throw away the key.

VERSE:
         D             G
Well goodbye to my own Dublin dear,
         D             G
and goodbye to old St. Brigid's there.
                        C               G             D
Well I wasn't born with this, but now I got it like a flu.
            G                      D                   G
I'm fuckin' useless, so what's the point of impressing you?

CHORUS

If I know Ma, she'll scream and wail,
        G              D              G
so just lock me up and throw away the key.

VERSE:
Well, I'd only fifteen pints but I could not see,
when them damn skites got a hold of me.
Well, I could say it was the whiskey oh, but that it may not be.
Or just the prospect here of something else to do.

CHORUS

VERSE:
Well I've always been a problem child,
and I know that I have been too wild.
I wasn't born with this, but now I got it like a flu.
I'm fuckin' useless, so what's the point of impressing you?

CHORUS
