The Juice Of The Barley (Live) - The Clancy Brothers[00:00:00]
In the sweet country Lim'rick one cold winter's night[00:00:01]
All the turf fires were burning when I first saw the light[00:00:06]
And a drunken old midwife went tipsy with joy[00:00:11]
As she danced round the floor with her slip of a boy[00:00:18]
Singing ban-ya-na mo if an-ga-na[00:00:22]
And the juice of the barley for me[00:00:26]
Well when I was a gossoon of eight years old or so[00:00:29]
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[00:00:57]
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[00:01:14]
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 me out from the altar[00:01:26]
Saying you'll end up your days with your neck in a halter[00:01:29]
And you'll dance[00:01:33]
