Or "One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer", also by George Thorogood.
Which was also a cover of a John Lee Hooker song.
Either The Old Black Rum or The Night That Patty Murphy Died, both by Great Big Sea. "Oh, the night that Patty Murphy Died/Is a night I'll never forget/Some of the boys got loaded drunk/And they ain't got sober yet!" I believe those are both traditional Irish songs, so there are other versions out there.
You know, I was actually discussing this with someone the other day, but the Irish have the best drinking music ever.
Drunken Lullabys - Flogging Molly
The Pub With No Beer - The Dubliners (Or, really, anything else by them. Or by the Young Dubliners.)
What's The Use Of Getting Sober (When You're Gonna Get Drunk Again) - Joe Jackson (Or the original version, by Louis Jordan.)
Beers, Steers, and Queers - Revolting Cocks
"Traditional Irish Folk Song" By Denis Leary:
They come over here
And they take all our land
They chop off our heads
And they boil them in oil
Our children are leaving
And we have no heads
We drink and we sing
And we drink and we die
We have no heads
We have no heads
They come over here
And they chop off our legs
They cut off our hands
And put nails in our eyes
O'Grady is dead
And O'Hanrahan's gone
We drink and we die
And continue to drink
O'Hanrahan
No O'Hanrahan
They buried O'Neil
Down in country Shillhame
The poor children crying
And fe dee din de
Hin fle di dinfle
Di din fle de din de
In hey bibble bibble
Hey bibble bibble
Hey fle bibble de
O'Hanrahan
No O'Hanrahan
We drink and we sing
And we drink and we sing
Hey!
We drink and we drive
And we puke and we drink
Hey!
We drink and we fight
And we bleed and we cry
Hey!
We puke and we smoke
And we drink and we die
Hey!
Aw you guys, thanks.
I put the JLH version of 1B, 1S & 1B. I have no idea how I left off "Why Don't We Get Drunk And Screw" I found a few Flogging Molly that I like. 2 Versions of Whiskey in the Jar. Several Beer songs.
I will try to post a list when I get all the songs down and weed them out. I'm not going to the store to get cds- I'll likely just use iTunes (except for the Flogging Molly and Dropkick Murphys, which I may buy, take what I need and then donate to FE. They seem right up his alley).
Also, if I have a burner on the new Mac by then, I'll burn some for the F2F
How about Leonard Cohen's "Closing Time?"
