Never Been There Before Lyrics - So Far So Good: Best Of The Irish Descendants - The Irish Descendants

She'd never been there before 

She'd never been there before 

A young man asked her recently 

To come and sit upon his knee 

He tickled her in the ribs 

And he filled her with delight 

She'd never been there before 

But now she goes there every night 

Me sister Sue was always such a silly little goon 

She never really understood the proper way to swoon 

A young man asked her recently to sit upon his knee 

When she at last consented she behaved so bashfully 

She'd never been there before 

She'd never been there before 

She seemed so proud when Mr Brown 

Began to bounce her up and down 

He tickled her in the ribs 

And he thrilled her with delight 

She'd never been there before 

But now she goes there every night 

A friend of mine whose husband was a stingy little man 

Resolved herself to work upon a good old fashion plan 

While Willy was sleeping fast that night she said I'll take a chance 

Got out of bed and dove into the pockets of Willy's pants 

She'd never been there before 

She'd never been there before 

But she was awful pleased to see 

That Willy was sleeping peacefully 

She only took half a buck 

And it filled her with delight 

She'd never been there before 

But now she goes there every night 

One night a burly policeman was walking on his beat 

He happened to shine his flashlight in the alley down the street 

The cook was standing in the door she said oh deary me 

I feel so terrible lonesome will you keep me company 

He'd never been there before 

He'd never been there before 

He gave the cook a regular treat 

Along with a lovely roast of meat 

He tickled her in the ribs 

And he filled her with delight 

She'd never been there before 

But now she goes there every night
