The Crack Was Ninety In The Isle Of Man
Weren't we the rare oul' stock
Spent the evenin' gettin' locked
Up in the Ace of Hearts
Where the high stools were engaging
Over the Butt Bridge down by the dock
The boat she sailed at five o' clock
"Hurry boys" said Whack
"Or before we're there we'll all be back"
Carry him if you can, the crack was ninety in the Isle of Man
Before we reached Alexander Base
The ding dong we did surely raise
In the bar of the ship we had great sport
As the boat she sailed out of the port
Landed up in Douglas Head
Enquired for a vacant bed
The dining room we soon got shown
By a decent woman up the road
Lads, eat it if you can, the crack was ninety in the Isle of Man
Next morning we went for a ramble round
Viewed the sights of Douglas Town
Then we went for a mighty session
In a pub they call Dick Darby's
We must have been drunk by half past three
To sober up we went swimmin' in the sea
Back to the digs for the spruce up
While waiting for the rosy
We all drew up our plan, the crack was ninety in the Isle of Man
That night we went to the Texas bar
Came back down by horse and car
We met Big Jim and all went in
To drink some wine in Yates's
The Liverpool Judies, it was said
Were all to be found in Douglas Head
McShane was there in his suit and shirt
Them foreighn girls he was truin' to flirt
Sayin' "Hey girls I'm your man", the crack was ninety in the Isle of Man
Whacker fancied his good looks
On an Isle of Man woman he was struck
But a Liverpool lad was by her side
Throwin' the jar into her
Whacker thought he'd take a chance
He asked the quare one out to dance
Around the floor they stepped it out
To Whack it was no bother
Everythin' was goin' to plan, the crack was ninety in the Isle of Man
The Isle of Man woman fancied Whack
Your man stood there 'till his mates came back
Whack! They all whacked into Whack
And Whack was whacked out on his back
The police force arrived as well
Banjoed a couple of them as well
Landed up in Douglas jail
Untill the Dublin boat did sail
Deported every man, the crack was ninety in the Isle of Man
A Diversão Era Noventa na Ilha de Man
Não éramos nós a rara safra
Passamos a noite nos embriagando
No Ace of Hearts
Onde os bancos altos eram animados
Sobre a Butt Bridge lá no cais
O barco partiu às cinco em ponto
"Acelera, rapazes" disse o Whack
"Ou antes de chegarmos, já estaremos de volta"
Carregue-o se puder, a diversão era noventa na Ilha de Man
Antes de chegarmos à Base Alexander
O barulho que fizemos foi certo
No bar do navio nos divertimos muito
Enquanto o barco saía do porto
Chegamos em Douglas Head
Perguntamos por uma cama vaga
Logo nos mostraram a sala de jantar
Por uma mulher decente na estrada
Rapazes, comam se puderem, a diversão era noventa na Ilha de Man
Na manhã seguinte fomos dar uma volta
Vimos os pontos turísticos da cidade de Douglas
Depois fomos para uma grande sessão
Em um pub que chamam de Dick Darby's
Devemos ter estado bêbados às três e meia
Para nos recuperar, fomos nadar no mar
De volta para o lugar para nos arrumarmos
Enquanto esperávamos pela rosada
Todos nós traçamos nosso plano, a diversão era noventa na Ilha de Man
Naquela noite fomos ao bar Texas
Voltamos de carro e cavalo
Encontramos o Big Jim e todos entramos
Para beber um vinho no Yates's
Diziam que as garotas de Liverpool
Estavam todas em Douglas Head
O McShane estava lá com seu terno e camisa
Tentando flertar com aquelas estrangeiras
Dizendo "Ei, garotas, eu sou o seu homem", a diversão era noventa na Ilha de Man
O Whacker se achava bonito
Ficou encantado com uma mulher da Ilha de Man
Mas um rapaz de Liverpool estava ao lado dela
Jogando bebida nela
Whacker achou que era sua chance
Convidou a moça para dançar
Pela pista eles dançaram
Para o Whack não foi problema
Tudo estava indo conforme o plano, a diversão era noventa na Ilha de Man
A mulher da Ilha de Man se interessou pelo Whack
Seu cara ficou lá até os amigos voltarem
Whack! Todos atacaram o Whack
E o Whack foi derrubado de costas
A polícia também chegou
Pegou alguns deles também
Acabamos na cadeia de Douglas
Até o barco de Dublin zarpar
Deportaram todos os homens, a diversão era noventa na Ilha de Man
