Táim In Arréars

Here's a health to me mother-in-law now
I ne'er at the fair saw her yet
You blaggard, don't drink a drop with me
Your conduct I'll never forget
My money you freely have squandered
Treated me rarely there now
Drank both me goose and me gander
And tonight you'll be drinking me cow

[Chorus]
Oh, Táim in arrears, in arrears
Táim in arrears in dti on ol
Táim in arrears, in arrears
And I'm feared I'll not pay evermore

I'm a fellow without any shame, now
Without a good name to report
That would say to his darling wife’s mother
He’d still carry on in this sort
I surely must travel through Erin
Take to the road till I die
And as on me way I’ll be farin’
You’ll still hear me neighbours all cry:

[Chorus]
"Oh, Táim in arrears, in arrears
Táim in arrears in dti on ol
Táim in arrears, in arrears"
And I'm feared I'll not pay evermore

I’d give you of cows a full twenty
Of calves I would give you a score
I’d give you me money in plenty
If you’ll promise to drink here no more
A thousand good cows you can give me
Ten acres, a million or more
I’dn't swear to give over me drinking
I’d still pay a call to this door

[Chorus]
Táim in arrears, in arrears
Táim in arrears i dti on ol
Táim in arrears, in arrears
And I’m feared I’ll not pay evermore

There’s a band of grey mud ’round me hat now
In my coat there is many a tear
Like a string is me old caravat now
And oh, me poor wig is thread-bare
I’ll buy me a shining new jacket
A wig that’s all powdered galore
And I’ll kick up a mighty fine racket
When I come into money once more

[Chorus]
Táim in arrears, in arrears
Táim in arrears i dti on ol
Táim in arrears, in arrears
And I’m feared I’ll not pay evermore
