Howdy Groove gang!

I'm back this week with another traditional Irish tune.

This is one the Dubliners and the Clancy brothers used to regularly perform.Its called the real old Mountain dew and it's about Whiskey :).

The Real Old Mountain Dew

Let grasses grow and waters flow in a free and easy way
But give me enough of the fine old stuff that's made near Galway Bay
And policemen all from Donegal, Sligo and Leitrim too
Oh, we'll give them the slip and we'll take a sip
Of the Real Old Mountain Dew!

Hi di-diddly-idle-um, diddly-doodle-idle-um, diddly-doo-ri-diddly-i-deh
Hi di-diddly-idle-um, diddly-doodle-idle-um, diddly-doo-ri-diddly-i-eh

There's a neat little still,at the top of the hill
Where the smoke curls up to the sky
By the smoke and the smell you can plainly tell
That there's Whiskey brewin' nearby
For it fills the air with odours rare
And betwixt both me and you
As home we roll, we can take a bowl
Or a bucket of the Mountain Dew!

Hi di-diddly-idle-um, diddly-doodle-idle-um, diddly-doo-ri-diddly-i-deh
Hi di-diddly-idle-um, diddly-doodle-idle-um, diddly-doo-ri-diddly-i-eh

Now learned men who use the pen
Have wrote the praises high
Of the sweet poitin from Ireland green
Distilled from wheat and rye
Throw away your pills, it'll cure all ills
Be you Pagan, Christian or Jew
So take off your coat and grease your throat
With a bucketful of Mountain Dew!

Hi di-diddly-idle-um, diddly-doodle-idle-um, diddly-doo-ri-diddly-i-deh
Hi di-diddly-idle-um, diddly-doodle-idle-um, diddly-doo-ri-diddly-i-eh
