Leningrad Cowboys - Emerald Blues Lyrics
Me and Mary Callahan we go a long way backGod knows how many times I tried to get her in the sackOne night she said just give me time till next Saint Patricks dayI'll make your waiting all worthwhile I'll let you have your wayBut then she left me for some man and now she runs a house down in AmsterdamThe few times that I'm sober I find it hard to seeShe had all that loving in her but she wouldn't give it to meBut oooh! There's still whiskey in the whiskey jarHey, hey! Drink up be merryOooh! Free the whiskey from the whiskey jarHey, hey! Goodbye to MaryThen came Mary number two her last name was O' TooleShe said that she would take my name she'd be my Emerald jewelI should have known right then and there it wasn't meant to beThe next day she was on a boat across the Irish seaShe left me for some foreign man and now she raises kids down in PakistanShe said she wanted freedom, needed to be freeI guess her kind of freedom meant breaking free from meBut oooh! There's still whiskey in the whiskey jarHey, hey! Drink up be merryOooh! Free the whiskey from the whiskey jarHey, hey! Goodbye to MarySometimes if I get sober I find it hard to seeThey had all that loving in them but they wouldn't give it to meBut oooh! There's still whiskey
