tommy makem - paddy kelly's brew lyrics

paddy kelly is my name, making poteen is my game
and i live away up there behind the hill
i can make a drop that’s pure and there’s nothing it
won’t cure
it surp-sses any medicine or pill
chorus:
for it tastes as sweet as honey as it trickles down
your throat
it looks as clear and pure as morning dew
it can make a fellow sing though he didn’t have a note
won’t you try a drop of paddy kelly’s brew
it can cure your rheumatism, it can cure a wheezy chest
it can cure you of the gout and gallstones too
it cures toothache, headache, backache, falling hair
and all the rest
fallen arches, corns and bunions and the flu

chorus
any summer day you’ll find be poaching salmon in the
glen
or setting snares for rabbits on the hill
but the nicest thing of all is when evening shadows
fall
just to watch the bottles filling from my still
chorus
i’ve a pound or two to spend, i’ve a bottle for a
friend
i’ve got customers galore who buy my brew
at a wedding or a wake, i supply the stuff they take
and i keep a good supply the whole year through
chorus
now, i know you will confess that the world is in a
mess
and the politicians don’t know what to do
i’ll supply them with a plan that will cure the ills of
man
throw away the guns and hand out kelly’s brew
