Drink The Night Away - Gaelic Storm

We set sail at half-past morn

Looking for a new tomorrow

Don’t know when we’re coming home

So we’ll drink, and we’ll dance

And we’ll drown our sorrow!

Weigh-hey!

Hey Laddie Hey!

Weigh, hey, hey!

We’ll drink the night away!

Now, I don’t know what there lies in store

But it’s better than this

That’s why I’m willing

To stake my claim on a foreign shore

Whit me spoons, and me fiddle

And half a shlling!

Weigh-hey!

Hey Laddie Hey!

Weigh, hey, hey!

We’ll drink the night away!

I dreamt a place

I know it’s true

Where the dolphins play and it’s always sunny

The girls are brown and the ocean blue

Less work to do

But you make more money!

Weigh-hey!

Hey Laddie Hey!

Weigh, hey, hey!

We’ll drink the night away!

I must be off by morning’s light

I can hear our bo’sun’s whistle blowing

So its one more kiss

And one more fight

And one more song while the beer is flowing!

Weigh-hey!

Hey Laddie Hey!

Weigh, hey, hey!

We’ll drink the night away!

When the sky is grey

Look out to sea

When the waves are high and the light is dying

Well raise a glass and think of me…

When I’m home again

Boys, I’ll be buying!

Weigh-hey!

Hey Laddie Hey!

Weigh, hey, hey!

We’ll drink the night away!

Weigh-hey!

Hey Laddie Hey!

Weigh, hey, hey!

We’ll drink the night away!

Weigh-hey!

Hey Laddie Hey!

Weigh, hey, hey!

We’ll drink the night away!

Weigh-hey!

Hey Laddie Hey!

Weigh, hey, hey!

We’ll drink the night away!
