Tavern Song

I went from me home to roam the wide world
Me feet took me along the road
A stick and me had is all I need now
And at my back I wear me coat
I sailed with a ship across the ocean
Slept in a barrel of porter ale
Came drunk to New York where the girls were ugly
Rum couldn't help so we set sail

British wine for British people
Salty wine for rovin' tars
Ciaran made us Irish coffee
Without coffee in our jars
Auld Ronnie Drew he was the captain
'Clean up the Deck, you rat' said he
Britannia rules the mighty ocean
Tonight I rule sweet Mary McGee

Me wife at home I do not miss her
Me farm, me pigs I really miss
We came to New Orleans the french town
Some spanish lady I did kiss
King Louis Town is really dirty
I saw a frenchmen in a dress
He tried to kiss the scot Luke Kelly
It ended in a bloody mess

So we set sail to caribbean ocean
A lot of plunder we had to keep
But oh our dreams they vanished quickly
when our ship got sunk in the ocean deep
The British crown it blows our ship down
Most our Men disappeard in the sea
The Day of Revenge oh we hope it will come soon
And the Britains ass we will stuff with tea!
