dubliners - rare old mountain dew lyrics
let gr-sses grow and waters flow in a free and easy way,
but give me enough of the rare old stuff that’s brewed near galway bay,
come policemen all from donegal, sligo and leitrim too,
oh, we’ll give them the slip and we’ll take a sip
of the rare old mountain dew
chorus
hi di-diddly-idle-um, diddly-doodle-idle-um, diddly-doo-ri-diddlum-deh
hi di-diddly-idle-um, diddly-doodle-idle-um, diddly-doo-ri-diddlum-deh
at the foot of the hill there’s a neat little still,
where the smoke curls up to the sky,
by the smoke and the smell you can plainly tell
that there’s poitin brewin? nearby.
for it fills the air with a perfume rare,
and betwixt both me and you,
as home we stroll, we can take a bowl,
or a bucket of the mountain dew
chorus
now learned men who use the pen,
have sung the praises high
of the rare poitin from ireland green,
distilled from wheat and rye.
put away with your pills, it’ll cure all ills,
be ye pagan, christian or jew,
so take off your coat and grease your throat
with the dear old mountain dew.
chorus
