about

A drinking song about a wee little lass, and getting drunk

lyrics

Li-di-di-di-di
Li-dee-di-di-di
Li-dee-di-di-di
Li-dee-di-dee-dee-dum

My looks had faded
and I was quite jaded
whenever i spoke of romance

well old Mr Cupid
Sent me girls quite stupid
my love life it hadn't a chance

I'd all but surrendered
when a wee belle so tender
practically made my heart stop

during friday nights bender
she couldn't find her blender
with a wee yen for some lemon drops

I don't really care
that she smokes, and drinks and swears
or sleeps with a loaded handgun
Let it be written
that i am quite smitten
with sixty two inches of fun


Li-di-di-di-di
Li-dee-di-di-di
Li-dee-di-di-di
Li-dee-di-dee-dee-dum


i gave no resistance
and offered assistance
on her grand thirst quenching quest

some vodka from Poland
I hadn't quite stolen
a grater for lemon zest

so thanked me maker
pulled out my shaker
and pour out two glasses of bliss

we got a bit tipsy
then like a gypsy
I swooped in and stole me a kiss

I don't really care
that she smokes, and drinks and swears
and sleeps with a loaded handgun
Let it be written
that i am quite smitten
with sixty two inches of fun

Yeah Let it be written
that i am quite smitten
with sixty two inches of fun

Oh Let it be written
that i am quite smitten
with sixty two inches of fun
