THE WHISKY FLYER
Half a lifetime as the crow flies
From here to Lisaroe,
There are two ways I could travel
And I don’t know which to go.
Refrain:
Ah ha ha my Whisky Flyer
Come on and carry me, come.
Ah ha ha My Whisky Flyer
Come on and carry me, home.
I’ll be travellin’ till Thursday
If I catch the midnight train.
I could take the Whisky Flyer
And be there in “Same again”.
Refrain:
Ah ha ha my Whisky Flyer etc
For far too many weekends,
I took the whisky flight
And I landed in the darkness
And left before daylight.
When I woke up in the morning,
I found to my dismay,
That the dream I had of Lisaroe
Was a nightmare flight away
Refrain:
Ah ha ha my Whisky Flyer etc
I walked down to the station
With my suitcase in my hand.
But the stationmaster told me
That the midnight train had gone.
It’s a lifetime as the crow flies
From here to Lisaroe;
There are two ways I could travel,
But only one I’ll ever go
