Dublin City Ramblers — The Flight Of Earls lyrics

Lyrics

Capo on 1st fret.
well, youre just in time to be too late
I tried to but I couldnt wait
And now I ve got another date
So I wont be home no more
Youre just in time to miss the boat
So dont take off your hat and coat
be on your way, thats all she wrote
cause I wont be home no more.
1st bridge
I stood around a month or two
And waited for your call
Now I m too busy pitchin woo
So come around next fall
I scratched your name right off my slate
And hung a sign on my front gate
Youre just in time to be too late
And I wont be home no more.
Well, youre just in time to turn around
And drive your buggy back to town
You looked me up I turned you down
And I wont be home no more
Youre just in time to change your tune
Go tell your troubles to the moon
And call around next may or june
cause I wont be home no more.
2nd bridge
I used to be the patient kind
Believed each alibi
But thats all done, I ve changed my mind
I ve got new fish to fry
Well, youre just in time to celebrate
The things you didnt calculate
Youre just in time to be too late
And I wont be home no more.
