Days of Rum

You knew her in the time She was young and yearned to die She'd gaze at the light In the corner in the night And the men would come to her In the dead of old winter In the doldrums it was fine To touch her body and her mind Singing: Dum-diddy dum Days of fun, days of rum! Singing, Dum-diddy-dum Days of fun, days of rum! Scarlet in the wine Raise the bloody vine Oh, she knew you in the time She was young And yearned to die But the roses never came She was just some winters dame And in her bed she lay As she dreamt oof a dying day Singing, Dum-diddy-dum Days of fun, days of rum Singing, Dum-diddy-dum Days of fun, days of rum
