lyrics

As I was walking down a Dublin street
A lovely sunny day
I came across a ragged ol’ man
Sittin’ in my way
His clothes were old, an eye was gone
His beard was long and gray
I asked him what he wanted
He said: ”This is what I’ll say:”

I’m gonna drink, I’m gonna drink
I’m gonna drink until I’m drunk and never gonna stop
I’m gonna drink, I’m gonna drink
I’m gonna drink my way to heaven and never sober up

I went fishing off the coast of my
Beloved Ireland green
I got a wondrous catch
It was the first I’d ever seen
A mermaid sweet and fair
With curly hair and eyes so green
I asked her what she wanted
She said: ”Listen carefully:”

I’m gonna drink, I’m gonna drink
I’m gonna drink until I’m drunk and never gonna stop
I’m gonna drink, I’m gonna drink
I’m gonna drink my way to heaven and never sober up

Outside a burnt-out church
With his head in his hands
There sat a priest mumbling
To himself some pious chants
With empty eyes he seemed so lost
Abandoned by his saints
I asked him what he wanted
He said ”These are my demands:”

I’m gonna drink, I’m gonna drink
I’m gonna drink until I’m drunk and never gonna stop
I’m gonna drink, I’m gonna drink
I’m gonna drink my way to heaven and never sober up

In a pub an army captain sat
Sippin’ on his beer
He’d been a soldier all his life
Killing everywhere
”I hate that bloody king” he whispered
With an angry sneer
I asked him what he wanted
He said ”This is why I’m here:”

I’m gonna drink, I’m gonna drink
I’m gonna drink until I’m drunk and never gonna stop
I’m gonna drink, I’m gonna drink
I’m gonna drink my way to heaven and never sober up

I’m gonna drink, I’m gonna drink
I’m gonna drink until I’m drunk and never gonna stop
I’m gonna drink, I’m gonna drink
I’m gonna drink my way to heaven and never sober up
I’m gonna drink my way to heaven and never sober up
I’m gonna drink my way to heaven and never sober up
