Happy St. Patrick's Day

Friend of my soul, this goblet sip

'twill chase the pensive tear.

'Tis not so sweet as woman's lip

but oh, 'tis more sincere.

There are many good reasons for drinking,

One has just entered my head,

If a man doesn't drink when he's living,

How the hell can he drink when he's dead?

~~~~~~~~~~~~

I drink to your health when I'm with you,

I drink to your health when I'm alone,

I drink to your health so often,

I'm starting to worry about my own

An Irishman is never drunk as long as he can hold on to one blade of grass and not fall off the face of the earth.
