Dave’s Gone By Song (3/17/2010): DRINK `TIL I’M DRUNK

(c)2010 Dave Lefkowitz
NOTE: This St. Patrick’s Day debuted March 17, 2010 on the 325th episode of the “Dave’s Gone By” show.
I’m not Irish, but I wish I were
`Cause the Irish love their fun
When the Irish come to celebrate
They don’t stop till the potcheen’s done

So although I’m not an Irishman
I can hold my glass up high
I can drink just like an Irishman
And I will until I die

That is why I’m tight
Each and every night
Fill my glass, and all will be right
When I…
Drink, drink, drink `til I’m drunk
Then drink until I’m sick

Rugby and politics, pour me a shot
Mountbatten really deserved what he got
Grab me a Guinness; grab me a stout
I won’t stop `til it all vomits out
When I drink, drink, drink `til I’m drunk
And drink until I’m sick.

Watch me stumble out of the bar
Onto the sidewalk and into my car
When I come swerving into your lane
Hoist up a glass, and we’ll drink up again
When we drink, drink, drink `til we’re drunk
And drink until we’re sick.

Everyone dresses so festive and gay
Wearing the green on St. Paddy’s Day
Thanks to the whuskee and thanks to the booze
I’m wearing green from my mouth to my shoes
When I drink, drink, drink `til I’m drunk
And drink until I’m sick.

Drink `til I stagger, drink `til I fall
and cover the sidewalk with throat alcohol
Call me a loser, call me a jerk
Still, it beats taxes, marriage, and work

So I drink, drink, drink `til I’m drunk
And drink until I’m sick
(everybody!)
Drink, drink, drink `til you’re drunk
And drink until you’re sick
(one more time!)
Drink, drink, drink `til you’re drunk
And drink until you’re sick!
