Mister Gallagher And Mister Sheen 1922

There are two funny men
the best I've ever seen
one is Mister Gallagher
the other Mister Shean,
when these two cronies meet
it surely is a treat
the things they say
and the things they do
and the funny way they speak.

Oh! Mister Gallagher
Oh! Mister Gallagher
Hello what's on your mind
this morning, Mister Shean.
Ev'rybody's making fun
of the way our country's run
all the papers say
we'll soon live European.
Why Mister Shean
Why Mister Shean
on the day they took away
our old canteen,
cost of living went so high,
that it's cheaper now to die,
Positively Mister Gallagher,
Absolutely Mister Shean.

Oh! Mister Gallagher
Oh! Mister Gallagher
If you're a friend of mine
you'll lend me a couple of bucks
I'm so broke and badly bent
and I haven't got a cent
I'm so clean you'd think
that I was washed with Lux.
Oh! Mister Shean
Oh! Mister Shean
Do you mean to say
you haven't got a bean,
On my word as I'm alive,
I intended touching you for five,
Oh I thank you Mister Gallagher
you are welcome Mister Shean.

Oh! Mister Gallagher
Oh! Mister Gallagher
Once I think I saw you
save a lady's life,
In a rowboat out to sea
you were a hero then to me
and I thought perhaps
you've made this girl your wife,
Oh! Mister Shean
Oh! Mister Shean
As she sunk I dove down
like a submarine,
Dragged her up
upon the shore,
now she's mine for ever more,
Who the lady Mister Gallagher?
no the rowboat Mister Shean.

Oh! Mister Gallagher
Oh! Mister Gallagher
What's the name of that game
they play on the links
With a stick they knock the ball
where you can't find it at all
then the caddie walks around
and thinks and thinks.
Oh! Mister Shean
Oh! Mister Shean
You don't even know
a hazard from a green,
It's become a popular game,
and you don't even know its name,
sure it's croquette
Mister Gallagher,
no, lawn tennis, Mister Shean.
