An old sea shanty modified by Irish Stout

In the beginning was the Irish Stout, and the stout was good. The Irish Stout was SO good, in fact, we started singing about it--Irish Pub Songs. The Irish songs flowed as prolifically as the stout. Irish Stout is no longer just a dark beer made from roasting malts and barley. Now it is also a band--a couple friends who love drinking songs as much as they love drinking. We don't care about politics, religion, or being the most-traditional band in the world. Our sound is sharp, unique, and designed for hours of good old-fashioned song as you drink the night away. So if you're looking for traditional "Celtic music", leave now. We're gonna show you the FUN, RAUCOUS side of Celtic music. The type of music that might get your toes tapping, your beer splashing, your hearts racing, your eyes laughing, your thoughts crafting, your body thrashing, and your voice cracking from too much singing. Yeah. We know what you want to hear. Because we want to hear it too! So go ahead. Grab a pint of Irish Stout and join us in the pub. It doesn't have to be the same Irish pub. Yours will do. Just bring the CD out and give it to the bartender and say, I want music I can sing to! Then let the Irish Stout start flowing and satiate your thirst so that every day is St. Patrick's Day, thanks to Irish Stout.

Lyrics
Whiskey, Johnny! words and music traditional, add. lyrics Marc Gunn O, whiskey is the life of man, Whiskey, Johnny! I drink whiskey when I can. Whiskey for my Johnny O! Whiskey killed my poor old dad. Whiskey, Johnny! And whiskey drove my mother mad. Whiskey for my Johnny O! Whiskey killed my borther Ben, Whiskey, Johnny! It always was since the world began. Whiskey for my Johnny O! I took my gal to a whiskey mill, Whiskey, Johnny! We drank whiskey and I gave her my fill. Whiskey for my Johnny O! Whiskey from an old tin can, Whiskey, Johnny! I'll drink whiskey when I can. Whiskey for my Johnny O! I drink it hot, I drink it cold, Whiskey, Johnny! I drink it new, I drink it old. Whiskey for my Johnny O! Whiskey up and whiskey down. Whiskey, Johnny! And whiskey all around the town. Whiskey for my Johnny O! Oh whiskey here and whiskey there. Whiskey, Johnny! Oh I'll have whiskey everywhere. Whiskey for my Johnny O! I'll drink whiskey when I'm in a noose. Whiskey, Johnny! And I'll drink whiskey with Dr. Seuss Whiskey for my Johnny O! A glass of grog for every man, Whiskey, Johnny! And a bottle full for the shanteyman. Whiskey for my Johnny O! Come along bullies and pull with a will Whiskey, Johnny! We're almost through. We can go it still. Whiskey for my Johnny O!
