I don't own this music, I'm just sharing it (because it's badass)

Song: An Irish Pub Song
Artist: The Rumjacks
Album: Gangs of New Holland

-Lyrics-

Theres a county map to go on the wall,
A hurling stick & a shinty ball,
The bric, the brac, the craic & all,
Lets call it an Irish pub,
Caffreys, Harp, Kilkenny on tap,
The Guinness pie & that cabbage crap,
The ideal wannabee Paddy trap,
We'll call it an Irish pub,

[CHORUS]
Whale, oil, beef, hooked! I swear upon the holy book,
The only 'craic' you'll get is a slap in the ear,
Whale, oil, beef, hooked! I'll up & burst yer filthy mug,
If you draw one more shamrock in me beer!

We'll raise the price o' beer a dollar,
We'll make em wear a shirt & collar,
We'll fly a bloody tri-colour,
And call it an Irish pub,
Jager bombs & double shots,
The underagers think its tops,
We'll spike the drinks & pay the cops,
We got us an Irish pub.

[CHORUS]

The quick one in the filthy bog,
The partin' glass across the lug,
O' the lady-O, the dirty dog,
We got us an Irish pub,
It's over to me and over to you,
We'll skip along the Avenue,
And who t'hell is Ronnie Drew?
We got us an Irish pub.

[CHORUS]

Plasma screens & neon lights,
Kara-farkin-oke nights,
The bouncers they can pick the fights,
We'll call it an Irish pub,
Plastic cups, a polished floor,
We'll hose the blood right out the door,
And let the knucklers back for more,
We got us an Irish pub,

[CHORUS]

Oh top o' the mornin', Garryowen,
Kiss me I'm Irish, Molly Malone,
Failte, Slainte, Pog ma thon,
We got us an Irish pub,
Spike the punch & strip the willow,
Strike me up the rakes o' Mallow,
The Liffey never ran so shallow,
We got us an Irish pub.

  • where ddi u get this music from, i need to know if i can use the first 13 secs of it for an intro

  • @emaxwell458 You'll need to message the band then mate. I have their album, but I can't give you permission to sample it. They have a Youtube channel, you can get a hold of them there (though I think they're touring atm).

    They seem like a dead on bunch of lads, so I don't see why they wouldn't let you use it.

  • @SeeminglyIncoherent thanks man, whats there youtube channel name

  • @emaxwell458 For some reason, YouTube wont let me post a link to it. But the channel name is TheRumjacks. If you go to my channel, I'm a subscriber, so you should be able to get to them through there.

  • im about to sound like a old person but DONT YOU HAVE ANY RESPECT FOR THE CLASSICS I MEAN THIS IS SHIT COMPARED TO THEM

  • @WORMIE4456W First off, I have plenty respect for the classics: traditional Irish folk music is my bread and butter. Secondly, it's called the evolution. You're allowed your opinion, I'm not going to deny you that, but you can't just piss it about like it's fact. This music isn't shit, it's different. Different != Shit.

    I hasten to add: if you're thinking of replying to this, and not being civil, then you can fuck right off.

  • Low ! This is Real Irish Fight Music /watch?v=ZP0yauSagzA

  • is this copyright if i use it 

  • @WORMIE4456W I know it's probably difficult for your inbred, underdeveloped mind to truly comprehend this, but your 'classics' weren't always there. Good music has to start somewhere, and if you ask anyone who doesn't have as lacking a personality, they'd probably agree that this is a damned good start.

    P.S ~ you might want to consider your inability to logically delegate what you say when you make a post.
