Lyrics Paddy and the Rats

Paddy and the Rats

Rogue

Must’ve seen the warning

Some gold from the king

The Navy grants a bounty

The scums are chasing me

But I drink with the boozers

Howling all the night

When comes my Rosie

She’s gotta be around

At dawn I am to leave

Hold again

For the last sea and the friends

Take away my heart from this dusty land

They call me the rogue

But I’ll keep on looting, my friend

Let’s haul the rope again

Like a flash in the morning

See the sun rising

Don’t let be taken

Just run far away

My whole lotta Rosie

Snoring on the ground

Her breath shakes the ceiling

Blowing from her mouth

You don’t know what I’ve been through

Hold again

For the last sea and the friends

Take away my heart from this dusty land

They call me the rogue

But I’ll keep on looting, my friend

Let’s haul the rope again

Hold again

For the last sea and the friends

Take away my heart from this dusty land

They call me the rogue

But I’ll keep on looting, my friend

Let’s haul the rope again
