Dubliners Drink It Up Men Lyrics

At the pub at the crossroads there's whiskey and beer
There's brandy from Cognac that's fragrant but dear
But for killing the thirst and for raising the gout
There's nothing that all beats a pint of good stout

Drink it up, men, it's long after ten

At the pub on the crossroads I first went astray
There I drank enough drink for to fill Galway Bay
Goin' up to the morning I worn out me shoes
Goin' up to the cross for the best of good booze

Drink it up, men, it's long after ten

Some folk o'er the water think bitter is fine
And others they swear by the juice of the vine
But there's nothinthat's squeezed from the grape or the hop
Like the black liquidation with the froth on the top

Drink it up, men, it's long after ten

I've travelled in England, I've travelled in France
At the sound of good music I'll sing or I'll dance
So hear me then, mister, and pour me one more
If I cannot drink it up then throw me out the door

Drink it up, men, it's long after ten

It's Guinness's porter that has me this way
For it's sweeter than b___ermilk and stronger than tea
But when in the morning I feel kinda rough
Be cursing Lord Ivy who brews the d___ stuff

Drink it up, men, it's long after ten
Drink it up, men, it's long after ten
