+ Show full styles

[Intro] [Instruments: Fast Banjo, Crowd noise, Glass clinking] [Spoken: One, two, three, four!] ​[Verse 1 | Swing Feel] (raspy male voice) I walked into O'Malley's pub on a rainy Tuesday night My pockets they were empty but my thirst was shining bright The barman looked me in the eye, he knew my cunning plan He said "You better pay your tab before you act the man!" ​[Chorus | Double-Time] [Crowd Singing] So raise your glass and stomp your feet upon the wooden floor! We’ll drink the barrel dry and then we’ll scream for more! From Dublin town to Galway Bay, beneath the starry skies We’re looking for the holy grail, the pint that never dries! Hey! ​[Instrumental Solo] [Instruments: Tin Whistle, Fiddle] ​[Verse 2] (laughing vocal style) I told a tale of fishing boats and monsters in the sea I sang a song of rebel kings and ancient history The barman shed a tear or two, he filled my glass with stout He said "With stories such as that, I cannot throw you out!" ​[Chorus | Double-Time] [Crowd Singing] So raise your glass and stomp your feet upon the wooden floor! We’ll drink the barrel dry and then we’ll scream for more! ​[Outro] [Stop-Time] (Shouted) Another round!
