You can hear this song as part of a podcast, on this page. It's the second song on the podcast. Here's my transcription:


PISSED-OFF PADDY BARMAN
As sung by The Donegal X-Press on their album "Quinn's Diaries"

CHORUS: I'm a pissed-off Paddy barman. I don't give a fuck.
Even when you catch me on a good day, you're shit out of luck.

1. My name is Tom. I come from Cork city,
Where the shots(?) keep you warm, girls are so pretty.
I sail cross the sea. I pour the best pint,
And if you don't believe that, then you can eat shite.
I pour the best whiskey, get you so pissy,
Get you so shitty, you fall to the floor.
I sweep your eyes(?) up with the booze and the trash,
Then I hand you to Craig, throws you out on your ass,
But I know you'll be back for more.
Yeah, you know you'll be back for more. CHORUS.

2. I'm movin' down south with my girl Tracy,
And with our new daughter, ...(?) family.
I'm openin' a bar in sunny F. L.
If you don't come on down, then you can all go to hell.
I pour the best Irish coffee.
I make it real strong and real frothy.
I pour the best Irish whiskey.
You'll stumble right out so pissky.
Yeah, you know you'll be back for more. (Yes, you will!)
Yeah, you know you'll be back for more. CHORUS TWICE.

No luck with the lyrics. The band may be The Donegal X-press. Some info on the band is HERE(Irish Abroad), too.

I've only heard this song in a local Irish pub in Baltimore... might have been written and performed by a local band. Does anyone have an idea what band that could be? Is it on a CD commonly available? Does anyone have the lyrics?

thx, Håvard
