The Irish Drinking Song (feat. The Gammy Fluthers)

It was Christmas in Kirkubbin 1991 The boys were mashin' whiskey And the girls are drinkin' rum And though the holly green was hangin' And the mistletoe was hung I couldn't sleep that Christmas 'til the deed was done I said Li-dee-die-dee-dee-dum Li-dee-die-dee-dee Kill a fuckin' Englishman And throw him in the sea! So I stepped out from the merriment Found a soldier by the dam I took out both me knuckles And I said "fight me like a man" And he tried to calm me senses But I was fuckin' gone So I took out a fuckin' hatchet And I cut off both his arms I said Li-dee-die-dee-dee-dum Li-dee-die-dee-dee Kill a fuckin' Englishman And throw him in the sea Now just remember before this next part I'm actually a really good guy in my personal life So I ripped out all his organs As I cursed the Queen and King Me eyes rolled back into me head And I couldn't feel a thing And I bet they could hear me screamin' Down in County Cork I went Yaa-oh-la! Hey li-deedle-lee-die-dum And we said Li-dee-die-dee-dee-dum Li-dee-die-dee-dee Kill a fuckin' Englishman And throw him in the sea So I came back to the party Soldier's head in hand The boys they stopped a-dancin' And they quieted the band I said this is for the Republic But my work here isn't done And I gave that English soldier's head to Colin My only son And we said Li-dee-die-dee-dee-dum Li-dee-die-dee-dee Kill a fuckin' Englishman And throw him in the sea Everybody! Li-dee-die-dee-dee-dum Li-dee-die-dee-dee Kill a fuckin' Englishman And throw him in the sea Li-dee-die-dee-dee-dum Li-dee-die-dee-dee Kill a fuckin' Englishman And throw him in the sea!
