Daddy’s Pocket


Lyrics and Music by Michael O’Neill, and Richie Kavanagh.

Chorus

Mammy thinks that Daddy’s pockets are very wide n’ deep.
Sometimes we all wonder if they go down to his feet.
Only Mammy knows what money Daddys got. 
And she won’t be happy til’ she spends the bleedy lot.

She drives a BMW and she has a mini too.
Always likes a swanky car, thats the thing too do. 
Always buying everything, every kind of yoke. 
The way that Mammy’s going, I think she’ll soon have Daddy broke.

Chorus

(OH) Mammy thinks that Daddy’s pockets are very wide n’ deep.
Sometimes we all wonder if they go down to his feet. 
Only Mammy knows what money Daddy’s got. 
And she won’t be happy till she spends the bleedy lot.

Mammy brings us now to Disneyland upon our holidays.
We can go on everything Mammy always pays.
Mammy is the greatest, the greatest of them all.
And Daddy doesn’t mind how much she ever spends at all.

Chorus

(OH) Mammy thinks that Daddy’s pockets are very wide n’ deep.
Sometimes we all wonder if they go down to his feet.
Only Mammy knows what money Daddy’s got.
And she won’t be happy till she spends the bloody lot.

Mammy goes now to the races few times every year.
Always likes to dress up in her fancy gear.
Mammy loves a flutter, always likes a bet.
She never wins a’tall, but Daddy never seems ta fret.

Chorus

(OH) Mammy thinks that Daddy’s pockets are very wide n’ deep.
Sometimes we all wonder if they go down to his feet.
Only Mammy knows what money Daddy’s got. 
And she won’t be happy till’ she spends the bleedy lot.
