Lyrics

Walter walter henry
I say walter henry hagan you done gone and broke my heart
Walter walter henry
You know that I believed you when you swore we'd never part

Well you said you had to have me and well you dang well did
You took me from my country home when I was just a kid
And you took me off to boston put a baby on my knee
Left me to dangle-dingle so far from tennessee

Now patrick might have been one but you ain't been no saint
But a good ole' irish boy they say we'll always have this drink
And you just won't stop chasin' all those other woman around
A ramblin' and a gamblin' throwin' irish whiskey down

Walter walter henry
Walter henry hagan you don't listen when I call
Walter walter henry
Of all the men I've ever loved I loved you best of all
(Oh play one for ol' walter henry boys)
[ fiddle ]
Walter walter henry
Walter henry hagan you done left your mark on me
Walter walter henry
If you ever sober up I'm waitin' back in tennessee
If you ever sober up I'm waitin' back in tennessee

Walter walter henry
Yoddle-le-ee-hee yoddle-le-ee-hee
Walter henry hagan you done left your mark on me
