| Video Discription | Al O'Donnell with a brilliant version of this Irish execution ballad. Lyrics The night before Larry was stretched The boys, they all paid him a visit A bit in their sacks too they fetched They sweated their duds till they ris’ it For Larry was ever the lad When a boy was condemned to the Squeezer To pawn all the duds that he had For to help a poor lad to a sneezer And warm his gob ‘fore he died The boys, they came crowding in fast They drew all their stools ’round about him Six glims round his trap case was placed He couldn’t be well waked without them When one of us asked, “Could he die Without having duly repented?” Said Larry, “That’s all in me eye And first by the Clergy invented For to get a fat bit for themselves” “I’m sorry, dear Larry” says I “To see you in this situation And blister me limbs if I lie I’d as lief it had been my own situation” “Ochone ! It’s all over” says he “For the neckcloth I’ll be forced to put on And this time tomorrow you’ll see Poor Larry as dead as a mutton Brcause why, his courage was good” “And I’ll be cut up like a pie And me nob from me body be parted” “You’re in the wrong box, then” says I For blast me if they’re so hardhearted A chalk on the back of your neck Is all that Jack Ketch dares to give you Then mind not such trifle’s a feck For why should the likes of them grieve you? And now boys, come tip us the deck” The cards being called for, then played Until Larry found one of them cheated A dart in his napper, he made For the boy he’d been easily heated “Hero, be the hokey, you thief I’ll scuttle your knob with me doddle You cheat me because I’m in grief Ah, but soon I’ll demolish your noddle And leave you your claret to drink” Then the clergy came in with his book And he spoke him so smooth and so civil Larry tipped him a Kilmainham look And pitched his big wig to the devil Then sighing, he threw back his head For to get a sweet drop of the bottle And pityful sighing he said “Oh, the hemp will be soon ’round me throttle And choke me poor windpipe to death “Though sure it’s the best way to die Oh, the dead are no better than living For when the damned gallows is high Your journey is shorter to Heaven” But what harasses Larry the most And makes his soul poor melancholy Is he thinks of the time when his ghost It will come in a sheet to sweet Molly Oh sure, it will kill her alive’ So moving, these last words he spoke We vented our tears in a shower Meself, sure I thought me heart broke For to see him cut down like a flower On his travels, we watched him next day The throttler, I thought I could kill him But Larry not one word did say Nor changed till he come to King William Then musha, his colour grow white When he came to the old numbing chit He was tucked up so neat and so pretty The rumbler jugged off from his feet And he died with his face to the city He kicked too, but that was all pride For soon you might see ’twas all over Soon after the noose was untied In darkness we waked him in clover And sent him to take his ground sweat 3MedFam5SOU |
