A Rare Auld Time 

(Written by Kirk McLeod and Aiden McGovern, arranged by Kirk McLeod) 



It's three a.m. and we're down at Bridie's 

The music's grand the craic it flows 

With Wally Putt and Gard O'Brien 

The best of times we've ever known 



So raise your glasses to the heaves 

The O'Reilly's and the Nevin's 

It's just as well a chara 

The tables are nailed down 

Paidi Murphy's on his second 

With McDuff and the Reverend 

We're having ourselves a rare auld time 



Now Thom O'Neil is going crazy 

He's doing a jig now with the wife 

She doesn't know it's Friday's money 

He's spent in Bridie's Thursday night 



Now ashtrays fly and chairs fall over 

There'll be hell to pay by daylight 

But we don't care t'is surely liftin' 

To see the glint in old Thoms' eye 



So raise your glasses to the heaves 

The O'Reilly's and the Nevin's 

It's just as well a chara 

The tables are nailed down 

Paidi Murphy's on his fourth 

With O'Conner and McCourt 

We're having ourselves a rare auld time 



All's quiet now in Danny's corner 

A drop of dew was his taste 

We miss the man since he met the coroner 

His humor never went to waste 



The story goes he walks by moonshine 

The auld ones hear him every night 

They say he sings down by the ditches 

Raisin' hell until the break of light 



So raise your glasses to the heaves 

The O'Reilly's and the Nevin's 

It's just as well a chara 

The tables are nailed down 

Paidi Murphy's on his eighth 

With Jimmy Joyce and Yeats 

We're having ourselves a rare auld time 



Sweet Mary Clare has roses bloomin' 

The lads are giving her the eye 

But she just wants to get back with Patrick 

After telling him goodbye 



Now Gerry Byrne has called for ciunas 

His Kate has fallen in a trance 

a voice so pure t'would give ya shivers 

But soon she'll break into a dance 



So raise your glasses to the heaves 

The O'Reilly's and the Nevin's 

It's just as well a chara 

The tables are nailed down 

Paidi Murphy's on his ninth 

Dylan Thomas, Oscar Wilde 

We're havin' ourselves a rare auld time 



Good ol' Murphy's on his tenth 

Jaysus Behan's really bent 

It's just as well a chara the tables are nailed down 

Sean O' Casey, Kavanaugh 

How the hell is Ballina? 

We're having ourselves a rare auld time 



Now it's Murphy's on his back 

Behan's having one on Jack 

It's just as well a chara the tables are nailed down 

Now it's Behan's on the floor 

Murphy's callin' out for more 

We're havin' ourselves a rare auld 

We're havin' ourselves a rare auld 

We're havin' ourselves a rare auld time
