Fight for Whiskey

[Verse] In a town called Ballyhooch Where the winds blow sharp and keen Lies the tale of lads and lasses And their whiskey o'er the green [Verse 2] Old Seamus raised his voice high In the cavern at McKeen's With a pint of amber liquid Fueled by hopes and rowdy dreams [Chorus] Fight They did with barrels near Spilling dreams in amber streams For the love of Eire's spirit And the warmth of whiskey's gleam [Verse 3] Bridie danced on wooden tables Shoes a-clatter through the morn In her eyes a spark of fire Born of tales and hearts reborn [Verse 4] Paddy swung with mighty purpose Beneath the moon's soft crescent light With each swig He found his courage In the whiskey’s endless fight [Chorus] Fight They did with barrels near Spilling dreams in amber streams For the love of Eire's spirit And the warmth of whiskey's gleam
