Well I had a drink with a friend of mine a week ago today
We were celebrating a month and a half too late St Patty's Day
Well I bought him a round and he bought me a round and the bouncer bought us 'annuder'
Whats an Irish boy from a good family doing in the gutter
Well we looked at each other and had to laugh as we lay there in our stink
Well I would'a cried if I would'a thought but every time I thought I'd drink
And if his poor old gray haired ma'd seen us there she would'a shuddered
Whats an Irish boy from a good family doing in the gutter
Well my Irish friend he liked to surf but me I couldn't swim
He said that he could teach me how and I said I trusted him
He swore he'd never let me drown he loved me like a 'brudder'

Well sure enough I drowned and I woulnd up at hte pearly gates
Where St Peter said "You're drunk as hell and son you should'a ate"
So he sent me back down to get a bite but instead I bought 'annuder'
