THE DRUNKARD

SWEET JESUS I BETTER STOP DRINKIN' MY LIFE'S GETTING REALLY BIZARRE
I SEE KNIGHTS COMING AT ME ON HORSEBACK IT'S TIME TO GIVE UP ON THE JAR
I SHOULD TRY A NEW OCCUPATION AS A DRUNKARD I'M NOT DOING WELL
I CHECK OUT THE SWORDS AND THE ARMOR THEY'RE ALL HERE TO TAKE ME TO HELL

SHOW US THE FACE OF THE TYRANT WE HAVE COME HERE TO MAKE WAR
FIGHTING FOR IRELAND AND FREEDOM LIKE WE DID IN THE OLD DAYS OF YORE

NOW WHY DON'T YOU JUST HOLD YOUR HORSES I KNOW THAT YOU'RE NOT CRACKING UP
THESE MEN HAVE ALL PLEDGED TO FREE IRELAND SO POUR SOME MORE SUP IN YOUR CUP
THEY ARE ALL HERE AWAITING BATTLE THE ENEMY CANNOT BE FOUND
THEIR MISSION IS NOW TO BRING US FREEDOM AND THAT'S WHY THEY CAME UP FROM THE GROUND

FREEDOM IS NOT A GREAT NOTION AND HOW IS IT GOING TO HELP ME
IT LOOKS LIKE I'LL NEVER BE SOBER FROM THE DRINKING I'LL NEVER BE FREE
RELEASE US FROM BOOZE AND THE NEEDLE A NEW ERA WILL HAVE BEGUN
THEN START ON THE GREED AND CORRUPTION IN THE MEANTIME I'LL JUST DRINK MY RUM

FREEDOM HAS LONG BEEN OUR MISSION WETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT
SO HAVE A WEE DRINK OF YOUR VODKA GIVE THANKS FOR THE LIFE THAT YOU'VE GOT
