Tuning: E A D G B E
GOh let grasses grow, and the waCters flow
in a Gfree and easy Dway!
but gGive me enough of the rCare ol' stuff
that's Gmade near DGalway Gbay
GCome peelers all, from Donnegal,
Sligo and Leitrim Emtoo,
we'll gGive them the slip, and we'll Ctake a sip
of the Greal old Dmountain dGew.
(chorus)
Gthere's a neat little still, at the foot of the hill,
where the smoke curls up to the Dsky
by the sGmoke and the smell, you can pClainly tell
that there's Gwhiskey Dbrewing near Gby.
GFor it fills the air, with a odour rare,
that betwixt both me and yEmou
when hGome you roll, we'll dCrink a bowl,
or a Gbucket of the Dmountain Gdew
(chorus)
GNow learned men, who use the pen,
Who've wrote your praises Dhigh,
That sweGet poitin, from IrCeland's green,
Gdistilled from Dwheat and rGye.
GThrow away your pills, it'll cure all ills
be a Pagan, Christian or EmJew,
so take Goff your coat, and Cease your throat
with the Greal ol Dmountain Gdew.
(chorus) Repeat first verse
