Drink It Up Men |
| At the pub at the crossroads there’s whiskey and beer |
| There’s brandy, strong cognac that’s aging for years |
| But for killing the thirst and for easing the gout |
| There’s nothing at all beats a pint of good stout |
| Drink it up men it’s long after ten |
| At the pub on the crossroads I first went astray |
| There I drank enough drink for to fill Galway Bay |
| Going up in the morning I wore out me shoes |
| Going up to the cross for the best of good booze |
| Drink it up men it’s long after ten |
| Some folk’s o’er the water think bitter is fine |
| And others the swear by the juice of the vine |
| But there’s nothing that’s squeezed from the grape or the hop |
| Like the black liquidation with the froth on the top |
| Drink it up men it’s long after ten |
| I’ve travelled in England, I’ve travelled in France |
| At the sound of good music I’ll sing or I’ll dance |
| So hear me then mister and pour me one more |
| If I can’t drink it up, then throw me out the door |
| Drink it up men it’s long after ten |
| It’s Guinness’s porter that has me this way |
| For it’s sweeter than buttermilk and stronger then tea |
| And when in the morning I feel kind a rough |
| Me curse on lord Iveagh who brews the damn stuff |
| Drink it up men it’s long after ten |
| Drink it up men it’s long after ten |
