Wasn't That a Party Lyrics

("The Rovers" are the same as "The Irish Rovers")

Could have been the whiskey
Might have been the gin
Could have been the three or four six-packs
I don't know, but look at the mess I'm in
My head is like a football, I think I'm gonna die
Tell me, me oh me oh my
Wasn't that a party?

Someone took a grapefruit and wore it like a hat
I saw someone under my kitchen table, talking to my old tom cat
They were talking about hockey, the cat was talkin' back
Along about then everything went black
But wasn't that a party?

I'm sure it's just my memory playin' tricks on me
But I think I saw my buddy cuttin' down my neighbour's tree
Could have been the whiskey
Might have been the gin
Could have been the three or four six-packs
I don't know, but look at the mess I'm in
My head is like a football, I think I'm gonna die
Tell me, me oh me oh my
Wasn't that a party?

Billy Joe and Tommy, well they went a little far
they were sitting in my backyard blowing on the siren from somebody's police car.
So you see your honour, it was all in fun
That little bitty track meet down on main street
Was just to see if the cops could run
Well, they run us in to see you
In an alcoholic haze
I can sure use those thirty days to recover from the party.
Could have been the whiskey
Might have been the gin
Could have been the three or four six-packs
I don't know, but look at the mess I'm in
My head is like a football, I think I'm gonna die
Tell me, me oh me oh my
Wasn't that a party?
