Who Put the Mush Songtext
von The McCalmans

My baby said goodbye, she was a Paul McCartney fan
She said she couldn′t stand the way I sang my songs
Now I'm a lonely man who can get around an old bodhran
I′d like to find the man who made me turn out wrong
Who wrote the words to these folk songs
(Doo-bee-doo-bee-doo-bee-doo-bee)

Who put the mush in the mush-a-ring-a-doo-dah
Who put the diddle in the diddle-i-dee-diddle-dum
Who put the ram in the Rambling Rover
Who put the where in the Doon In the Wee Room
Who was that guy, I would like to black his eye
He made my baby walk away from me
(Bogle Bogle Bogle Bogle, ah)

When we were alone (skiddle-idle-iddle-idle-iddle-idle-um)
She said my singing had no style (tell me something we don't know)
And when I asked if she'd gang to the Hielands (Leezy Lindsay)
She took the first train to Carlisle (south of the border)


Who put the don′t in the Don′t Get Married Girls
Who put the do in the Domeama-day-ay
Who put the heel in the heel-ya-ho boys
Who put the heave in the heave her away
I'd like to thank that bloke
With my hands around his throat
He made my baby walk away from me
(Skip to ma lou-ou-ou)

When we went to dance (disco me disco me disco me day)
We could never ever agree (she liked Jackson I liked Paxton)
She wanted rockinG but I liked Dick Gaughan
I said, "Listen to Dolores Keane"
She fell in love with a drum machine
That′s why she walked away from me

Tell me more, tell me more, tell me more, ugh!
(Air fa la la, air fa la la, air fa la la, lay hey hey hey)
(Air fa la la, air fa la la, air fa la la, lay hey hey hey)
That's why she walked away from me
(Will ye no come back again and again and again and again and again)


Who put the no in the no nay never
Who put the week in the week falorum
Who put the clover in the roll me over
Who put the Pogues in the Irish Rover
Ah, that′s why she's no longer mine
She made my baby walk away
She took my pair of socks away
She upped and went and locked away my Chieftains tapes from me
That′s why my baby walked away from me
