MULLIGAN AND ME
I took my mind for a little walk round the streets of yesterday
To all the old places where the gang and I did play
But deep inside it hurts my pride when I recall that day
To think of what the 60's had, the 80's took away
I saw the dear old sweetshop where we bought our honeybees
It's now been changed into a takeaway Chinese
And even the old picture house where the gang all used to go
Has since been turned into a roller disco
Chorus:
Whatever happened to gang and me.
There was Billy Joe, Johnny O, Murphy and McGee
And most of all my old pal, Mulligan, and me
Folks today they talk too fast they've too much on their minds
And always seem to look ahead but never look behind
Life today can be full of fun if you take your time young man
So take advice from one who knows and slow down while you can
The gang and me have such memories would fill your heart with joy
I long to see the golden days when I was just a boy
Whatever happened to gang and me.
There was Billy Joe, Johnny O, Murphy and McGee
And most of all my old pal, Mulligan, and me
And though the world is changing now where people come and go
I'll not forget my dear old pals nor the ones I used to know
Now every night I lift my glass in memory of those years
And think of all the good old times while I hold back the tears
Here's to you, the gang and me
There was Billy Joe, Johnny O, Murphy and McGee
And most of all my old pal, Mulligan, and me
