Theater, Music-Hall, Nostalgic, Irish & Historic Old Songs, Volume 32

Just to Show There Was No Ill-Feeling.
Sung by Lester & Williams

A friend of mine said lets go and have a drink.
Just to show there is no ill-feeling;
And closer bind old friendship's link,
Just to show there is no ill-feeling.
We had it, but with looks dismayed.
He found out he'd his purse mislaid;
I sympathized, and, of course, I paid,
Just to show there was no ill-feeling,

Chorus.
Dear old pals, jolly old pals,
Clinging together in all sorts of weather;
Dear old pals, jolly old pals,
Who show there is no ill-feeling.

I left my friend and walked away,
Just to show there is no ill-feeling;
I met a pretty girl, who at once did say,
Just to show there is no ill-feeling.
She said, I hope you'll not think I'm too free,
For I've fallen in love with you, you see,
So walk a little way home with me,
Just to show there is no ill-feeling.,

Chorus.
And we've both been there before, many a time, many a time,
We've both been there before, many a time.
And many a bottle of wine we drank to color your nose and mine,
We've both been there before, many a time, many a time.

We strolled 'neath the silvery moon,
Just to show there is no ill-feeling;
She said sit down and we'll have a spoon,
Just to show there is no ill-feeling.
When my senses they returned again,
I was on my back in the pouring rain,
And the girl had sneaked my watch and chain,
Just to show there is no ill feeling.

Chorus.
She done me up, just like a simple gilly;
I thought I was doing immense, do you see?
Never dreaming she was doing me;
And it's, oh, what a roast, and now I'll bet a dollar
She'll not get a chance
In a hundred years to do me up again.
