Horsing Around (the burger song)


Music and lyrics by Richie Kavanagh

We bought them auld burgers in the town yesterday.
We brought them home an’ had them for the tae.
There was six in a packet, the wife ate them all.
Since then the auld crater hasn’t been well at all.

Chorus
She’s been horsing around, horsing around. 
Since we bought them auld burgers inside in the town.
Horsing around, horsing around. 
Since we bought them auld burgers inside in the town.

Around twelve a clock, we both went up to bed. 
She says them auld burgers are gone to me head.
She says ye know Johnny, I’ll have ta get more.
She jumped out of bed an’ she ran out the door.

Chorus
She’s been horsing around, horsing around. 
Since we bought them auld burgers inside in the town.
Horsing around, horsing around. 
Since we bought them auld burgers inside in the town.

She ran down the street in her knickers an’ bra.
The young lad said daddy, what’s wrong with me ma?
She ran down the street, she was in her bare feet.
Be jaysus them burgers are full of horse meat.

Chorus
She’s been horsing around, horsing around. 
Since we bought them auld burgers inside in the town.
Horsing around, horsing around. 
Since we bought them auld burgers inside in the town.

The priest came a running an’ the doctor as well.
The guard in the squad car was driving like hell.
The wife full a horse meat, first past the post.
Says the man in the shop, she likes burgers the most.

Chorus
She’s been horsing around, horsing around.
Since we bought them auld burgers inside in the town.
Horsing around, horsing around. 
Since we bought them auld burgers inside in the town.

(Richie) “Were is she now Johnny?” 
(Johnny) “She’s gone to Cheltenham, lad!!”
