[Intro]
(Danny! Danny Boy! Danny!)

[Verse 1]
That's right my name is Danny Boy and I like to drink at night
I go down to the pub, wherein I buy myself a pint or three
I like to go out drinking, 'cause beer it is my life
Until I come home and lay eyes upon my darling wife
Say oh Danny, won't you go home earlier tonight?
Your daughter doesn't know you, you're giving us a fright when you say...

[Chorus 1]
Say, something's wrong with anyone who's not like me!
With you the violence just comes so easily
You never learn I have to teach you constantly!
With you the violence just comes
Hush now...
Ooh...

[Verse 2]
You know my name is Danny Boy and I'll buy another round
Then off to the market when this place closes down
'Cause I say drinking's always done when the sun's up in the sky
Sun is always up somewhere and it's your turn to buy and I say
Oh, Danny, won't you go home earlier tonight?
Your son he doesn't know you, you're giving us a fright when you say...
[Chorus 2]
Say, something's wrong with anyone who's not like me!
With you the violence just comes so easily (So easily)
You never learn I have to teach you constantly! (Constantly!)
Hush now... (Hush now...), hush now! (Hush now!)
Hush now...
Yeah!

[Outro]
Sleep!
Sleep!
Sleep, floating child!
Sleep!
Sleep!
Sleep, floating child!
Sleep!
Sleep!
Sleep, floating child!
Sleep!
Sleep!
Sleep, this is affectionate!
