The Juice Of The Barley - The Clancy Brothers with Tommy Makem[00:00:00]

In the sweet country lim'rick[00:00:01]

One cold winter's night[00:00:03]

All the turf fires were burning[00:00:06]

When I first saw the light[00:00:08]

And a drunken old midwife went tipsy with joy[00:00:11]

As she danced round the floor[00:00:17]

With her slip of a boy[00:00:20]

Singing ban ya na mo if an ga na[00:00:21]

And the juice of the barley for me[00:00:25]

Well when I was a gossoon[00:00:29]

Of eight years old or so[00:00:31]

With me turf and me primer to school I did go[00:00:34]

To a dusty old school house without any door[00:00:39]

Where lay the school master blind drunk on the floor[00:00:44]

Singing ban ya na mo if an ga na[00:00:48]

And the juice of the barley for me[00:00:52]

At the learning I wasn't such a genius I'm thinking[00:00:56]

But I soon bet the master entirely at drinking[00:01:03]

Not a wake or a wedding for five miles around[00:01:08]

But meself in the corner was sure to be found[00:01:13]

Singing ban ya na mo if an ga na[00:01:17]

And the juice of the barley for me[00:01:21]

One sunday the priest thread[00:01:25]

Me out from the altar[00:01:27]

Saying you'll end up your[00:01:28]

Days with your neck in a halter[00:01:30]

And you'll dance a fine jig between[00:01:33]

Heaven and hell[00:01:35]

And his words they did frighten me[00:01:38]

The truth for to tell[00:01:40]

Singing ban ya na mo if an ga na[00:01:42]

And the juice of the barley for me[00:01:46]

So the very next morning as[00:01:49]

The dawn it did break[00:01:51]

I went down to the vestry the pledge for to take[00:01:54]

And there in that room sat the priests in a bunch[00:02:00]

Round a big roaring fire drinking tumblers of punch[00:02:07]

Singing ban ya na mo if an ga na[00:02:11]

And the juice of the barley for me[00:02:14]

Well from that day to this[00:02:23]

I have wandered alone[00:02:26]

I'm a jack of all trades and a master of none[00:02:31]

With the sky for me roof[00:02:36]

And the earth for me floor[00:02:38]

And I'll dance out my days[00:02:43]

Frinking whiskey galore[00:02:45]

Singing ban ya na mo if an ga na[00:02:47]

And the juice of the barley for me[00:02:51]
