@alexpetrunak Don't you get it man they a tricking the women at their own game! by telling them not to get married haha can't you see? they are mothafkin geniuses.
@QueenetBowie no, you just didn't screw with your husband back then. it was culturally unacceptable. The other way around..? not so much, unfortunately. That plays a big role in what this song's about.. if you look at it in the time period.
I'm going to guess that this is Luke Kelly's voice. But because it's so old a song, i might flip if this is Ronnie Drew cuz his voice was really gravely way before he got sick, but i say this because this sounds scarcely like Luke Kelly unless he was very young here.
how could you possibly think this was ronnie? he has one of the most unique voices of all time...and even luke kelly sounds absolutly nothing like sean cannon
@louise114669 My mum liked this too, although she was hopelessly in love with my dad till she died. She did tell me, however, to listen to the song, and not to Dad, who was always after me to marry.
I love this song, but my parents can back up the meaning of getting married. Their an awesome couple and reasurance. They'd die for anyone. They'd die twice for each other.
But as soon as I have a daughter and she starts dating I will play this song, every waking moment! Lol
i love this song, brought up with the dubliners music and been searching for this song for a long time! its such great fun, and actually quite accurate. thanks for posting!
"You'd do better on the game" LMAO

LOL ... The title of this song should be "What you don't know before you're married!"
Cynical, outlook but unfortunately true; when couples don't renew their respect, love and devotion on a regular basis. ..
Me? I've been married for 40 years... LOL......
