In honor of St. Patrick's Day, here's a part of two Irish drinking songs we can all appreciate.
There's many that feign enjoyment,
From merciless employment.
Their ambition was this deployment
From the minute they left the school.
They save and scrape and ponder.
The rest go out and squander,
See the world and rove and wander,
And they're happier as a rule.
When troubles do befall me,
To the high road I do haul me.
A Rover's what they call me,
Tis me blessing and me curse.
Though my hard times have been many,
I'll take a drink with any.
And spend me last wee penny,
Till they come for me in a hearse.
--Rambling Rover
I'm at my best when my boots wear thin,
I'll see the world by the mile.
Every lake is green as a ladies eyes,
Every breeze as welcome as a smile.
From caravans of gold and silk,
To ships on the new moons tide.
I found my comfort in a mossy bed,
With the road close by my side.
--Wanderlust
Hope you enjoyed it. :jump
May you be 1/2 an hour in Heaven, before the Devil knows you're dead.
