Don't wanna stay in and watch TV - Let's go down the pub
Want to escape from reality - Let's go down the pub
Don't wanna know about another war - Let's go get drunk down the pub
Booze and birds you're living for - Let's go down the pub

That's where you go with the lads
Gonna drink, trying to forget
Till closing time, then you're off
Then you're off, straight home to bed

[Chorus (2x):]
Down the pub ... Down the pub ... Down the pub we go

Had an argument with your girl tonight - Let's go down the pub
Wanna get drunk and start a fight - Let's go down the pub
Don't wanna talk about the news you've heard - Let's go get drunk down the pub

That's where you go with the lads
Gonna drink, trying to forget
Till closing time, then you're off
Then you're off, straight home to bed

[Chorus (2x)]

Life, they say, is so much fun - Let's go down the pub
Don't think about the things you've done - Let's go down the pub
Just ignore all trouble ahead - Let's go get drunk down the pub
Buy us another round instead - Let's go down the pub

That's where you go with the lads
Gonna drink, trying to forget
Till closing time, then you're off
Then you're off, straight home to bed

[Chorus (2x)]

... Down the pub we go
... Down the pub
... Down the pub
... Down the pub we go
