So, Gather round ye lads and lasses and Set ya for awhile And hearken to me mournful tale about the emerald isle Lets raise our glasses high to friends and family gone And lift our vices in another Irish drinking song Consumption took me mother and Me father got the pox Me brother drank the whisky till he wound up in a box Me other brother in his troubles met with his demise Me sister has forever closed her smiling Irish eyes Now everybody's died So until our tears have dried We'll drink and drink and drink and drink and then we'll drink some more We'll dance and sing and fight until the early morning light Then we'll throw up pass out wakeup and then go drinking once again Kenny was killed in Killkenny And Clare she died in Clares Tip in Tiperrary died out in the dairy air Shannon jumped into the river Shannon back in June Ernie fell into the urn and tom is in Cleanliness is godliness my uncle Pat would sing He broke he neck a slipping on a bar o' Irish Spring O'Grady he was eighty though his bride was just a pup He died upon the honeymoon when she got his Irish up Now everybody's died So until our tears have dried We'll drink and drink and drink and drink and then we'll drink some more We'll dance and sing and fight until the early morning light Then we'll throw up pass out wakeup and then go drinking once again (Mexican Hat Dance) Joe Murphy fought with Riley near the cliffs of Odinie He took out his shalaily and he stabbed him in the spleen Me crazy uncle mike though he was a leprechaun But in fact he's just a leper and his arms and legs are gone When Timmy Johnson broke his neck it was a crying shame He wasn't really Irish but he went to Notre Dame MacNamara crossed the street and by a bus was hit But he was just a Scotsman so nobody give a sh(ACH!) Now everybody's died So until our tears have dried We'll drink and drink and drink and drink and then we'll drink some more We'll dance and sing and fight until the early morning light Then we'll throw up pass out wakeup and then go drinking once again (Jewish Song) Me drunken Uncle Brendan tried to drive home from the bar The road rose up to meet him when he fell out of his car Irony was what befell me great granduncle Sam He choked upon the very last potato in the land Conner lived in Ulster town He used to smuggle arms Until the British killed him And cut off his lucky charms And dear old father Flannigan who left the Lord's employ Drunk on sacramental wine beneath the alter boy Now everybody's died So until our tears have dried We'll drink and drink and drink and drink and then we'll drink some more We'll dance and sing and fight until the early morning light Then we'll throw up pass out wakeup and then go drinking once again Someday soon I'll leave this world of pain and toil and sin The Lord will take me by the hand to join all of me kin Me only wish is when the savior comes for me and you He kills the cast of river dace and Michael Flately too Now everybody's died So until our tears have dried We'll drink and drink and drink and drink and then we'll drink some more We'll dance and sing and fight until the early morning light Then we'll throw up pass out wakeup and then go drinking once again Then we'll throw up pass out wakeup and then go drinking once again Then we'll throw up pass out wakeup and then go driiinkiiing ooonce aaaagaaaiiin Hoyee
