[00:32.04]I'm an Irishman
[00:32.68]
[00:34.05]Leather weathered Irish skin
[00:35.94]Beard orange as the sunset over the flag
[00:38.45]In the night sky we fly it in
[00:40.22]Pride for the life we fight to live
[00:41.86]History I write with it
[00:43.55]Spit it with the dialect
[00:44.92]And this is a celebration of course
[00:47.31]
[00:48.08]The green white orange
[00:50.45]
[00:51.05]And when they pulled up on that shore
[00:52.92]First generation born
[00:54.39]Toast to those that made it
[00:56.18]On a boat to New York
[00:57.54]And when the English
[00:58.43]Came the colonizer came
[01:00.12]
[01:00.73]They filled up bottles of gasoline
[01:02.30]
[01:02.82]Turned 'em into balls of flame
[01:04.53]And hurled 'em to protect what's ours
[01:06.17]Don't touch these lucky charms
[01:07.73]Whole bunch of Irish screaming
[01:09.28]"**** the London Guard"
[01:10.57]
[01:11.35]I'm kidding not dissin'
[01:12.68]London this bloody war
[01:13.80]But go against the Irish
[01:15.50]And get a bloody jaw
[01:17.16]Preaching nonviolence
[01:18.64]But reminds of the scars
[01:20.11]And the bias put a pint up
[01:22.33]Everybody sing a song
[01:23.35]
[01:36.18]We put our glass to the sky and lift up
[01:39.33]And live tonight
[01:39.90]'Cause you can't take it with ya
[01:42.03]So raise a pint for the people
[01:44.27]That aren't with us
[01:45.53]And live tonight
[01:46.47]'Cause you can't take it with ya
[01:48.42]
[01:49.52]We put our glass to the sky and lift up
[01:52.08]And live tonight
[01:52.87]'Cause you can't take it with ya
[01:55.03]So raise a pint for the people
[01:56.98]That aren't with us
[01:58.25]And live tonight
[01:59.20]'Cause you can't take it with ya
[02:00.93]
[02:01.81]From New England to New Brunswick
[02:03.63]Galway to Dublin
[02:04.94]
[02:05.48]A rebellious nation of freckled face hustlers
[02:07.88]
[02:08.51]Heart blue collared workers and family
[02:10.98]
[02:11.51]My heritage proud to be a Haggerty
[02:14.55]Now with whiskey in our veins
[02:16.41]Claiming were the bravest men
[02:18.37]I drank Old Crow
[02:19.62]But pretended it was Jameson
[02:21.42]Dad sipped Guiness
[02:22.71]I sipped Old English
[02:24.24]'Til he sat me down at 16 and said "boy
[02:26.29]This is what a beer is"
[02:27.42]
[02:28.13]I put down the drink
[02:29.37]Couldn't drink like a gentleman
[02:30.77]That doesn't mean
[02:31.83]I can't make a drinking song for the rest of 'em
[02:34.26]Challenge us in football
[02:35.66]Yeah we might lose
[02:36.91]But don't put us next to a bar stool
[02:39.48]
[02:41.27]We take the history script it in song
[02:43.38]Light the torch then you pass it on
[02:45.51]That's right I said
[02:47.29]Lineage through the rhythm
[02:48.43]We script it from the palm
[02:50.01]And we give til' Ireland is on
[02:51.80]Bottoms Up
[02:52.87]
[03:05.93]We put our glass to the sky and lift up
[03:08.94]And live tonight
[03:09.96]'Cause you can't take it with ya
[03:11.89]So raise a pint for the people
[03:13.92]That aren't with us
[03:14.74]
[03:15.28]And live tonight
[03:16.23]'Cause you can't take it with ya
[03:18.47]We put our glass to the sky and lift up
[03:21.71]And live tonight
[03:22.50]'Cause you can't take it with ya

[03:28.82]'Cause you can't take it with ya
[03:30.42]
[03:31.51]Let's go
[03:32.17]
[04:29.85]Glass to the sky and lift up
[04:32.53]And live tonight 'cause you can't take it with ya
[04:35.49]So raise a pint for the people that aren't with us
[04:38.37]
[04:38.95]And live tonight 'cause you can't take it with ya
