Raise It High (Feat. Big Papa Love)

[Intro - Harmonica Solo, 8 bars] [harmonica solo] (spoken/shouted) Oi! Who's ready! Glasses up! If you're still standin', you're doin' it wrong! Verse 1 We came in soaked from the rain outside, Mud on our boots and a grin worldwide, Fiddle's screamin', the drummer's late, Someone's dancin' on the table again, Oi! The barkeep's laughin', sayin' "not tonight," But he's pourin' shots like he's startin' a fight Pre-Chorus We got no plan and no regrets, Just a pub full of beautiful wrecks (harmonica stab, 2 bars) Chorus (BIG crowd chant) So raise it high, raise it higher! To bad decisions and friendly liars! We sing too loud, we don't care why, It's all for love and alibis! Hey! Hey! Hey! We'll sleep tomorrow, not today! It's shenanigans, mayhem, madness and cheer If we're goin' down, we're goin' down with whiskey and beer! Verse 2 Someone's wavin' round a shoe they found, Someone's kissin' a stranger, second round, The band forgot how the chorus goes, So we all just shout and make it up as we go, There's a fight in the corner, it ends in a hug, Now they're buyin' each other shots by the jug (harmonica riff, 2 bars) Pre-Chorus 2 We toast to the nights we won't recall, The best damn stories start with "I was drunk and all " Chorus So raise it high, raise it higher! To broken hearts and burning desires! We sing too loud, we don't care why, It's all for love and alibis! Hey! Hey! Hey! We'll sleep tomorrow, not today! It's shenanigans, mayhem, madness and cheer If we're goin' down, we're goin' down with whiskey and beer! Bridge (half-time, clapping section) Oi! Oi! Oi! (harmonica wail, 2 bars) Oi! Oi! Oi! One more round no one's goin' home! Breakdown (chanty, pub style) Oi! Oi! Oi! Oi! We came to drink and make some noise! Oi! Oi! Oi! Oi! We came for chaos, not for poise! Final Chorus (bigger, faster) So raise it high, raise it higher! To old best friends and ones just met! We laugh too hard, we live too fast, Tryin' to make these moments last! Hey! Hey! Hey! We'll sleep tomorrow, not today! It's shenanigans, mayhem, madness and cheer If we're goin' down, we're goin' down with whiskey and beer! (harmonica solo, 4 bars) Outro (everyone shouting) To the nights we'll never remember With the friends we'll never forget!
