The Irish Drinking Song - Kyle Gordon ft. The Gammy Fluthers

It was Christmas in Kircubbin, 1981
The boys were mashing whiskey and the girls were drinking rum
And though the holly green was hanging
And the mistletoe was hung
I couldn't sleep that Christmas 'til the deed was done

I said lie-dee-die-dee-dee-dum
Lie-dee-die-dee-dee
Kill a fucking 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 fucking gone
So I took out a fucking hatchet
And I cut off both his arms

I said lie-dee-die-dee-dee-dum
Lie-dee-die-dee-dee
Kill a fucking 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 screaming
Down in County Cork
I went "Yah-heyah!"
A-lie-da-lee-da-lie-dum

And we said lie-dee-die-dee-dee-dum
Lie-dee-die-dee-dee
Kill a fucking Englishman
And throw him in the sea

So I came back to the party
Soldier's head in hand
The boys, they stopped the dancing
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 Collin, my only son

And we said lie-dee-die-dee-dee-dum
Lie-dee-die-dee-dee
Kill a fucking Englishman
And throw him in the sea (Everybody)
Lie-dee-die-dee-dee-dum
Lie-dee-die-dee-dee
Kill a fucking Englishman
And throw him in the sea
Lie-dee-die-dee-dee-dum
Lie-dee-die-dee-dee
Kill a fucking Englishman
And throw him in the sea
