Irish Drinking Song Lyrics - Buck-o-nine

i stumbled in at 2am all drunk 

and full of smoke 

my wife said "i've had enough" 

that's it, i'm sick, get out!" 

so i stumbled down to kelly's pub 

across the edge of town 

and i told the boys me story 

and we had another round 

and we'll drink and drink and drink 

and drink and drink and drink and 

fight-yeah! [2x] 

and if i see a pretty girl 

i'll sleep with her tonight 

i'll drink and drink and drink and 

drink and drink and drink and fight.... 

and mary McGregor 

well she was a pretty whore 

she'd always greet you with a smile 

and never lock her door 

but on the day she died 

i'll admit it sounded weak 

for mary McGregor finally got some sleep 

well i once loved a girl 

a child i'm told 

i gave her my heart 

and she gave me a cold 

so now i sit standing 

out in the pouring rain 

i'll stumble back to kelly's pub 

and cry away me pain
