Wasn t That A Party:Irish Rovers.
#37 in 1981.
[Chorus]
Could have been the whiskey, might have been the gin..
could have been the three or four six-packs,
I don t know, but look at the mess I m in.
My head is like a football, I think Im gonna die.
Tell me, me, oh, me, oh, my..wasn t that a party?
#2.
Someone took a grapefruit, and wore it like a hat.
I saw someone under my kitchen table, talking to my old tom cat..
they were talking about hockey, and the cat was talkin back.
Along about then everything went black..
but wasnt that a party?
[Bridge]
Maybe just my memory, playin tricks on me..
but I think I saw my buddy cuttin down my neighbour s tree..
[Chorus]
Could have been the whiskey, might have been the gin..
could have been the three or four six-packs,
I don t know, but look at the mess I m in.
My head is like a football, I think Im gonna die.
Tell me, me, oh, me, oh, my..wasn t that a party?
[Interlude]
[Bridge]
Old Billy Joe and Tommy, well, they went a little far..
they were sitting in the back seat blowing on the siren,
in somebodys police car.
#3.
So, you see, your honour, it was all in fun.
That little bitty track-meet down on the main street,
was just to see if the cops could run.
Well, they run us in to see you, in an alcoholic haze.
I can sure use those thirty days to recover from the party.
[Chorus]
Could have been the whiskey, might have been the gin..
could have been the three or four six-packs,
I don t know, but look at the mess I m in.
My head is like a football, I think Im gonna die.
Tell me, me, oh, me, oh, my..wasn t that a party?
[Chorus]
Could have been the whiskey, might have been the gin..
could have been the three or four six-packs,
I don t know, but look at the mess I m in.
My head is like a football, I think Im gonna die.
Tell me, me, oh, me, oh, my..wasn t that a party?
[Outro]
