Irish traditional song lyrics \u2014 collected by Beer Belly Band.<\/em><\/p>\n

Let Bacchus’ sons be not dismayed
\nBut join with me each jovial blade
\nCome booze and sing and lend your aid
\nTo help me with the chorus<\/p>\n

Chorus:
\nInstead of spa we’ll drink brown ale
\nAnd pay the reckoning on the nail
\nFor debt no man shall go to gaol (jail)
\nFrom Garryowen in glory<\/p>\n

We are the boys that take delight in
\nSmashing the Limerick lamps when lighting
\nThrough the street like sportsters fighting
\nAnd tearing all before us<\/p>\n

We’ll break the windows, we’ll break the doors
\nThe watch knock down by threes and fours
\nThen let the doctors work their cures
\nAnd tinker up our bruised<\/p>\n

We’ll beat the bailiffs out of fun
\nWe’ll make the mayor and sheriffs run
\nWe are the boys no man dares dun
\nIf he regards a whole skin<\/p>\n

Our hearts so stout have got us fame
\nFor soon ’tis known from whence we came
\nWhere’er we go they dread the name
\nOf Garryowen in glory<\/p>\n

Johnny Connell’s tall and straight
\nAnd in his limbs he is complete
\nHe’ll pitch a bar of any weight
\nFrom Garryowen to Thomondgate<\/p>\n

Garryowen is gone to rack
\nSince Johnny Connell went to Cork
\nThough Darby O’Brien leapt over the dock
\nIn spite of judge and jury<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
