Seven Drunken Nights lyrics

As I went home on a Monday night, as drunk as drunk could be.
I saw a horse outside the door, where my old horse should be.
Well I called me wife and I said to her:
"Will you kindly tell to me,
Who owns that horse outside the door, where my old horse should be?"
"Ah, you're drunk, you're drunk, you silly old fool, still you cannot see.
That's a lovely sow that my mother sent to me."
Well, it's many a day I traveled, a hundred miles or more,
But a saddle on a sow, sure, I never saw before.

As I went home on a Tuesday night, as drunk as drunk could be.
I saw a coat behind the door, where my old coat should be.
Well, I called me wife and I said to her:
"Will you kindly tell to me,
Who owns that coat behind the door, where my old coat should be?"
"Ah, you're drunk, you're drunk, you silly old fool, still you cannot see.
That's a woolen blanket that my mother sent to me."
Well, it's many a day I traveled, a hundred miles or more,
But buttons on a blanket, sure, I never saw before.

And as I went home on a Wednesday night, as drunk as drunk could be.
I saw a pipe upon the chair, where my old pipe should be.
Well I called me wife and I said to her:
"Will you kindly tell to me,
Who owns that pipe upon the chair where my old pipe should be?"
"Ah, you're drunk, you're drunk, you silly old fool, still you cannot see.
That's a lovely tin-whistle, that my mother sent to me.".
Well, it's many a day I traveled, a hundred miles or more,
But tobacco in a tin-whistle, sure, I never saw before.

And as I went home on a Thursday night, as drunk as drunk could be.
I saw two boots beneath the bed, where my old boots should be.
Well, I called me wife and I said to her:
"Will you kindly tell to me,
Who owns them boots beneath the bed where my old boots should be?"
"Ah, you're drunk, you're drunk, you silly old fool, still you cannot see.
They're two lovely geranium pots my mother sent to me".
Well, it's many a day I traveled, a hundred miles or more,
But laces in geranium pots sure I never saw before.

And as I went home on a Friday night, as drunk as drunk could be.
I saw a head inside the bed, where my old head should be.
Well, I called me wife and I said to her:
"Will you kindly tell to me,
Who owns that head with you in the bed, where my old head should be?"
"Ah, you're drunk, you're drunk, you silly old fool, still you cannot see.
That's a baby boy, that my mother sent to me".
Well, it's many a day I traveled, a hundred miles or more,
But a baby boy with his whiskers on, sure, I never saw before.
