This song by Pete St. John is about a WWI veteran who looses a leg but finds the rest of him is working just fine, thus he has a fine and energetic postwar social life.
slang:
"The Monto": Dublin's former red light district said to have been the largest in Europe,
"a dirty Flander's bullet": reference to the song's subject's wounding on WWI's Western Front,
"Gloucester Diamond": a green or open space in the middle of The Monto,
"Sally Gardens": I don't believe this is a place; perhaps this is a reference to Yeats' poem,
"The Back of the Pipes": an area in Dublin associated with courting couples,
"red Biddy": presumably a auburn-haired woman named Bridget,
"Liberty belles": the girls from one of Dublin's working-class areas,
"tosser": in the song it seems to mean money, but it usually refers to a certain sexual act,
"your laugh's a mortal sin": in this context it means an over the top or boisterous laugh,
"Monday in the ivy": payday (or dole day),
"Tuesday in the dregs": hangover (see Monday),
"Wednesday's walking wounded": hangover continues (see Monday),
"Thursday's soldier begs": out of money but not of thirst,
"Friday's hero on the town": back in business!,
"Saturday lost again": see Tuesday and Wednesday, and
"Sunday's good intentions": the prevalent habit of swearing off drink which never lasts.
