Lyrics The Mahones

The Mahones

Shakespeare Road

Just give me one more night, back at Shakespeare Road

Drinking Irish whiskey, in that dirty shit hole

Give me one more night, back at Shakespeare Road

Loved those Rare Auld Times with my heart and my soul

I loved those Rare Auld Times with my heart and my soul

It started back in London, back in 85'

I was drinking Irish bastard, lucky to be alive

I flew over to London, to start up a band

That when everything started, to get out of hand!

I arrived in Piccadilly Circus, where I first met the Clash

I got a flat in Westborne Park, where I started to rock

There was a knock at the door, and who did I see

It was Coko and Rory, with their bags at their feet!

Just give me one more night, back at Shakespeare Road

Drinking Irish whiskey, in that dirty shit hole

Give me one more night, back at Shakespeare Road

Loved those Rare Auld Times with my heart and my soul

I loved those Rare Auld Times with my heart and my soul

We moved down to Brixton, we got us a squat

Some dirty old house, that was starting to rot

And we never had, a key to the front door

We tossed Coko through the windows, and he'd crash to the floor!

Well we pissed out the windows, using candles for light

We had the best times, we were drinking all night

Blasting Screaming Blue Messiahs, on our cassettes

Never forget those times, they were the best!

Just give me one more night, back at Shakespeare Road

Drinking Irish whiskey, in that dirty shit hole

Give me one more night, back at Shakespeare Road

Loved those Rare Auld Times with my heart and my soul

I loved those Rare Auld Times with my heart and my soul

Bridge

Last time I saw Coko, he said write this song

About Shakespeare Road man, put the fucker down

So this is for Coko, and I hope you agree

Those were the best times yeah, Coko, Rory and Me!
