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
