Gaelic Storm Never Drink 'em Dry (Johnny Tarr's Funeral) --------------------------------------------- Intro: E (repeat)
ENow I'm sure you've heard the sorry tale of the day when Johnny fell, But here's a side of the story, boys, you might not know so well.
EWhen the hullabaloo was over, that night at the Castle Bar AMyself and the Five Cork BWomen had to bury Johnny ETarr!
EWe rolled him out the door to the morgue at Bishopstown, We asked if they'd cremeate him, but the coroner wore a frown. He sadly shook his head and said, "Your plan won't work so well, There's Aso much booze inBside his veins he'll blow this place to Ehell!"
So Aif it starts raining and the Ethunder rumbles loud, Johnny's Afallen up in heaven and Blanded on a cloud. His C#mtears are failing as he laughs for he Bknows that when you die, In the big!A Pub! Way up in the sky! You'll Bnever ever, ever, ever, ever Gdrink 'em Edry!
We Efinally got him out the door and we propped him again' the wall, But we couldn't find a big enough hearse to carry him at all. We rolled him to Cobh Harbor, for a burial at sea, We Afound the Irish BNavy, they had all gone home for Etea.
So Aif it starts raining and the Ethunder rumbles loud, Johnny's Afallen up in heaven and Blanded on a cloud. His C#mtears are failing as he laughs for he Bknows that when you die, In the big!A Pub! Way up in the sky! You'll Bnever ever, ever, ever, ever Gdrink 'em Edry! E

So once Emore we slowly rolled him, to the pub where he lived and died, We went in to drown our sorrows, and we left the corpse outside. When we stumbed out at sunrise, he was white as any sheet, There was AJohnny frozen Bsolid in the middle of the Estreet. So we Ecovered him in concrete, and forevermore he'll stand A pigeon on his baldy head and a pint glass in his hand. The passersby all give a shout to the Saint of Lager Louts, "PlAease treat him as a Roundabout!&Bquot; Yer man namEed Johnny Tarr! "PlAease treat him as a Roundabout!&Bquot; Yer man namEed Johnny Tarr!

Way up in the sky! You'll Bnever ever, ever, ever, ever Gdrink 'em Edry! In the big!A Pub! Way up in the sky! You'll Bnever ever, ever, ever, ever Gdrink 'em Edry!
