Back to the Pub

The plane touched down in Dublin-town
Straight to the pub, and I knocked one down
Fell into the Liffey and I almost drowned
Had to go back to the pub

Well it's two more whiskeys, one more jar!
Somebody call for a taxi car
Well left me passport on the bar
Had to go back to the pub

I'd walk your wild Atlantic shores
If I ever made it out the door
That emerald isle so lush and green
The greatest place I've never seen
Greatest place I've never seen

Booked a tour but changed his gate
I was worried that I might show up late
I soonly sowed the whiskey straight
Never left the pub

The tour was bound for the Cliffs of Moore
I said, "That's fine, I'll have two more!"
Spent the weekend on the floor
In the corner of the pub

I'd walk your wild Atlantic shores
If I ever made it out the door
That emerald isle so lush and green
It's the prettiest place I've never seen
The prettiest place I've never seen

Supposed to kiss the Blarney Stone
That's not for me, you're on your own
You can tell that castle broke a home
I'm going back to the pub

And just as I was about to go
Somebody walked in with their old banjo
Storm blew up and it started to blow
Why would I leave the pub?

I'd walk your wild Atlantic shores
If I ever made it out the door
That emerald isle so lush and green
Prettiest place I've never seen
Prettiest place I've never seen

Well it rained all day and it rained all night
We told ourselves we'd be alright
Well the sun came out we got such a fright
Had to go back to the pub

Three more hours 'till I head back
Off to the hotel, then to Beck
But I can't leave now, there's too much crack
I'm staying in the pub

I'd walk your wild Atlantic shores
If I ever made it out the door
That emerald isle so lush and green
It's the prettiest place I've never seen
The prettiest place I've never seen

So here's to the malt and here's to the hop
Here's to the dram and here's to the drop
Here's to knowing when not to stop
When we're in the pub

Now I swear it's said in Murphy's law
A drop or pint takes time to pour
Once it's finished you need one more
And a bag of Tayto, too
And a bag of Tayto, too
