Christy Moore – The Foxy Devil lyrics

When I Was Young And Handy In My
Prime
In Taverns I Would Sit And Bide My Time.
it's There I Met Your Company,
I'd Sit And Drink My Fill,
I'ts There That You Took Hold Of Me,
I Think You've Got Me Still.

You're The Foxy Devil When You Like.
You Set My Mind At Ease And Then You
Strike
You Set My Head A Reeling,
You Make Me Shout And Sing,
My Memory Flees, I Get No Ease
Till I Have A Little Drink

You're The Crafty Rouge And That's For
Sure.
For Your CompanyThere Is No Cure,
I've Squadered All My Money
And The Best Years Of My Life
All On Your Charms,In Spite Of The Harm,
In Spite Of Peace And Strife.

Whiskey In The Morning Or At Night
Gives Strength To Sing And Dance, To Love
And Fight,
And So Despite Misfortune
i'll Take You As You Are -
The Best Of Friends And Enemies,
The Best I've Known So Far.
