Irish Celebration (P Smoov Remix)

Lyrics

From the pub to the club
 It's Smoov baby, let's go
 I'm an Irishman
 Leather weathered Irish skin
 Beard orange as the sunset over the flag
 In the night sky we fly it in
 Pride for the life we fight to live
 History, I write with it
 Spit it with the dialect
 And this is a celebration of course
 The green, white, orange
 And when they pulled up on that shore
 First generation born
 Toast to those that made it on a boat to New York
 And when the English, came the colonizer came
 They filled up bottles of gasoline, turned 'em into balls of flames
 And hurled 'em to protect what's ours
 Don't touch these lucky charms
 Whole bunch of Irish screaming, "Fuck the London Guard"
 I'm kidding, not dissin' London, this bloody war
 But go against the Irish and get a bloody jaw
 Preach nonviolence but remind us of the scars
 And the bias, put a pint up, everybody sing this song
 We put our glass to the sky and lift up
 And live tonight 'cause you can't take it with ya
 So raise a pint for the people that aren't with us
 And live tonight 'cause you can't take it with ya
 We put our glass to the sky and lift up
 And live tonight 'cause you can't take it with ya
 So raise a pint for the people that aren't with us
 And live tonight 'cause you can't take it with ya
 From New England to New Brunswick
 Galway to Dublin
 A rebellious nation of freckled face hustlers
 Heart, blue collared workers and family
 My heritage, proud to be a Haggerty
 Now with whiskey in our veins
 Claiming we're the bravest men
 I drank Old Crow, but pretended it was Jameson
 Dad sipped Guiness, I sipped Old English
 'Til he sat me down at 16 and said, "Boy, this is what a beer is"
 I put down the drink, I couldn't drink like a gentleman
 That doesn't mean I can't make a drinking song for the rest of 'em
 Challenge us in football, yeah we might lose
 But don't put us next to a bar stool
 We take the history, script it in song
 Light the torch then you pass it on
 That's right I said, lineage through the rhythm we script it from the palm
 And we give IT til' Ireland is on
 Bottoms up
 Yuh, we put our glass to the sky and lift up
 And live tonight 'cause you can't take it with ya
 So raise a pint for the people that aren't with us
 And live tonight 'cause you can't take it with ya
 We put our glass to the sky and lift up
 And live tonight 'cause you can't take it with ya
 So raise a pint for the people that aren't with us
 And live tonight 'cause you can't take it with ya (let's go)
 This one's for you, let's go
 And all my people sing
 Yeah my people sing
 That's Ireland, it's beautiful isn't it?
 Irish celebration
 And all my people sing
 s
 Put our glass to the sky and lift up
 And live tonight because you can't take it with ya
 So raise a pint for the people that aren't with us
 And live tonight 'cause you can't take it with ya
 (Fuckin' face hustlers)
