Browncoat Bar & Grill - Irish Drinking Songs by RiverIsMyGoddess

I stumbled in at 2 am all drunk and full of smoke,
My wife said "I have had enough, that's it, I'm sick, get out!"
So I stumbled down to Kelly's Pub, across the edge of town
And I told the boys me story, and we had another round.

Oh, we'll drink and drink and drink and drink and drink and drink and
fight! We'll drink and drink and drink and drink and drink and drink and
fight! And if I see a pretty girl I'll sleep with her tonight,
I'll drink and drink and drink and drink and drink and drink and fight....

And Mary McGregor well she was a pretty whore
she'd always greet you with a smile and never lock her door.
But on the day she died all the men in town did weep
For Mary McGregor finally got some sleep

Oh, we'll drink and drink and drink and drink and drink and drink and
fight! We'll drink and drink and drink and drink and drink and drink and
fight! And if I see a pretty girl I'll sleep with her tonight,
I'll drink and drink and drink and drink and drink and drink and fight....

Well I once loved a girl, a child I'm told,
I gave her my heart, and she gave me a cold.
So now I sit standing here, out in the pouring rain
I'll stumble back to Kelly's Pub and cry away me pain.

Oh, we'll drink and drink and drink and drink and drink and drink and
fight! We'll drink and drink and drink and drink and drink and drink and
fight! And if I see a pretty girl I'll sleep with her tonight,
I'll drink and drink and drink and drink and drink and drink and fight....

DTH: Thanks for the aspirin...really needed it.

Happy wearin' o' th' green!

One of my favorite Irish songs (not really a drinking song, but still)

In the town of Scariff the sun was shining in the sky
When Willie Clancy played his pipes and the tears welled in my eyes
Many years have passed and gone since the times we had there
But my heart's tonight in Ireland in the sweet County Clare

My heart tonight is far away across the rolling sea
In the sweet Milltown Malbay it is there I'd love to be
So long ago and far away but nothing can compare
My heart's tonight in Ireland in the sweet County Clare

That August in Kilrush when the rain was lashing down
And our hotel was that haybarn on the outskirts of town
We were all sick and feverish and Dolan had the flu
But Johnny produced some whiskey and the sun came shining through

My heart tonight is far away across the rolling sea
In the sweet Milltown Malbay it is there I'd love to be
So long ago and far away but nothing can compare
My heart's tonight in Ireland in the sweet County Clare

Those nights in Six Mile Bridge when the songs and music flowed
And it came to closing time sure the lights were turned down low
And the sergeant from Kilkishin he would buy us all one more
And we never left that pub before the clock was striking four

My heart tonight is far away across the rolling sea
In the sweet Milltown Malbay it is there I'd love to be
So long ago and far away but nothing can compare
My heart's tonight in Ireland in the sweet County Clare

Lahinch and Enistymon, Lisceanar and Kilkee
But best of all was Milltown when the music flowed so free
Willie Clancy in the County Clare I'm ever in your debt
For the sights and sounds of yesterday are shining memories yet

My heart tonight is far away across the rolling sea
In the sweet Milltown Malbay it is there I'd love to be
So long ago and far away but nothing can compare
My heart's tonight in Ireland in the sweet County Clare

In the days of Sweeney and the sweet County Clare

*pauses to leave a properly polished and chilled can o' 'Dew for ninjakitty*

*waves and slips into a shadowy corner*

*dances more*

*throws confetti for MSB* I am the confetti fairy in training and I bless your fortune with sparkly things

(my fave aunt is obsessed with fairies and sparkly things [including confetti], she's the queen fairy, and has dubbed me her fairy in training)

Edit: OH!! hilarious story. My boyfriend went out with his friends this past friday, and all of them have recently seen and fallen in love with Firefly. So they were all talking about how incredibly awesome the series is and asked Andy what he thought of it. Being the complete weirdo he is (he has never seen a SINGLE star wars film, isn't a fan of Serenity, and doesn't see what's so appealing about Firefly) was like 'well, my girlfriend watches it so I've seen it, but...meh *shrugs*' i was like WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU!! but, just goes to show that he's the only person on the planet who thinks Firefly ain't all that special, and he's surrounded by people who love it

there is no escape for him, he will conform.
I just think it's hilarious that he keeps getting stranded in situations with people who love it ever since i discovered it XD

Why is it so quiet in here today? Is everyone nursing headaches from Paddy's day? I'm afraid I just fell asleep on the sofa whilst grading papers.

I so need a life!

There seems to be a lot of teachers on this site.

I used to teach. Loved it (mostly).

It's been a while since I've had that huge stack of papers in front of me. Have fun.

That's just logical.

Teachers are intelligent (despite any evidence to the contrary. It's possible I'm a little biased here!).

You need to be intelligent to truley appreciate Firefly (again, this is a bit of a generalisation - I'm sure some people just watch the pretty lights without contemplating the underlying metaphysical subtexts).

Therefore all Browncoats = good teachers.
(Even unofficially, teaching of the brilliance of Firefly as per Freelancer above)

Wurbleflurgh...huh?
Oh

! You all done gone made me fall 'sleep! That must explain why it's gone 7pm and I'm still at work with no sign of being allowed to leave soon. Those telepathic robots didn't do the job at all well!

Think I'm going to go home and do work from there.

Feeling miffed about being so put upon.

*Eyes light up at sight of spiked bat, then face falls at sight of empty sack.*

Huh. Looks like MsB and I need someone else to take our frustrations out on. Any volunteers?!

Before this bar gets shut down and ya'll move on, I think we need to have a final song.

Not Irish, but still is a song of "universal fellowship" and its damn catchy to me.

Quote:

Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
and never brought to mind ?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
and auld lang syne ?

CHORUS:
For auld lang syne, my dear,
for auld lang syne,
we’ll tak a cup o’ kindness yet,
for auld lang syne.

And surely ye’ll be your pint-stoup !
And surely I’ll be mine !
And we’ll tak a cup o’ kindness yet,
for auld lang syne.

CHORUS

We twa hae run about the braes,
and pou’d the gowans fine ;
But we’ve wander’d mony a weary fit,
sin’ auld lang syne.

CHORUS

We twa hae paidl’d in the burn,
frae morning sun till dine ;
But seas between us braid hae roar’d
sin’ auld lang syne.

CHORUS

And there’s a hand, my trusty fiere !
And gives a hand o’ thine !
And we’ll tak a right guid-willie-waught,
for auld lang syne.

CHORUS

-----------------------------------------------------------
There's a widow in sleepy Chester
Who weeps for her only son;
There's a grave on the Pabeng River,
A grave that the Burmans shun;
And there's Subadar Prag Tewarri
Who tells how the work was done.
