Jar Song Lyrics

You look around, you say what's up
You see another Irishman taking to the 'sup
You see that's the way, that's the way they cameYou look around, you say what's up
You see another Paddy and he taking to the 'sup
You see that's the way, that's the way they cameTake me out on the jar today
We'll drink stout and we'll be okay
We might get our holes tonight
We'll get in a fight alrightBrendan Behan was a friend of mine
He loved the bars and he drink cheap wine
Get outta his mind with a lad and lass
He'd ride them both and then go to massShane McGowan loves Dublin town
I drank with him once and woke up on the ground
Maybe someday we'll meet up and do 'brunch'
Some beers and a shandy tooLuke Kelly meant a lot to me
He sang from in here and then swigged his beer
If ordering pints was a crime
He'd be in Mountjoy for eternityChristy Moore was an awful hoor
He'd drink poteen 'til the bogs were clean

He brought me great joy since I was a boy
The day he went dry the publican criedTake me out on the jar today
We'll drink stout and we'll be okay
We might get our holes tonight
We'll get in a fight alrightTake me out on the jar today
