Lyrics
Oh poor old dicey reilly she has taken to the sup, the balance weighed and they looks all fade Old, the balance weighed and they looks all fade
And then she s in for another little drop, and it s time i had another little one, for it s off each morning to the pop
And then she s in for another little drop, and then she s in for another little drop
And the name of the dame was dicey reilly, and it s time i had another little one Old, ah the heart of the rowl is dicey reilly
ah the heart of the rowl is dicey reilly
Oh but time went catching up on her like many pretty whores, still the heart of the rowl is dicey reilly
Still the heart of the rowl is dicey reilly, long years ago when men were men and fancied may oblong
Still the heart of the rowl is dicey reilly, and it s time i had another little one
long years ago when men were men and fancied may oblong
Long years ago when men were men and fancied may oblong, long years ago when men were men and fancied may oblong
For the heart of the rowl is dicey reilly, or lovely beckie cooper or maggie s mary wong
Oh but time went catching up on her like many pretty whores, she says it s nearly half past one
The balance weighed and they looks all fade, oh poor old dicey reilly she has taken to the sup
And then she s in for another little drop, oh poor old dicey reilly she will never give it up
Just one was worthy of the name, and it s after you along the street before you re out the door
she says it s nearly half past one
Long years ago when men were men and fancied may oblong, and it s after you along the street before you re out the door, one woman put them all to shame
Ah the heart of the rowl is dicey reilly, but out of all that great brigade, the balance weighed and they looks all fade
Oh poor old dicey reilly she will never give it up, oh poor old dicey reilly she has taken to the sup
for it s off each morning to the pop
And it s after you along the street before you re out the door, one woman put them all to shame, she says it s nearly half past one
oh she walks along fitzgibbon street with an independent air
Oh she walks along fitzgibbon street with an independent air, oh but time went catching up on her like many pretty whores
Ah the heart of the rowl is dicey reilly, the balance weighed and they looks all fade, and it s after you along the street before you re out the door
for it s off each morning to the pop
For it s off each morning to the pop, oh poor old dicey reilly she has taken to the sup, oh poor old dicey reilly she will never give it up
and it s time i had another little one
but out of all that great brigade
But out of all that great brigade, one woman put them all to shame
long years ago when men were men and fancied may oblong
And it s time i had another little one, and it s after you along the street before you re out the door
but out of all that great brigade
the balance weighed and they looks all fade
Long years ago when men were men and fancied may oblong, still the heart of the rowl is dicey reilly
and then it s down be summerhill and as the people stare
ah the heart of the rowl is dicey reilly
just one was worthy of the name
And then she s in for another little drop, still the heart of the rowl is dicey reilly
and it s time i had another little one
Still the heart of the rowl is dicey reilly, and it s after you along the street before you re out the door, long years ago when men were men and fancied may oblong
long years ago when men were men and fancied may oblong
or lovely beckie cooper or maggie s mary wong
and then she s in for another little drop
