Well it's been a long week workin' hard in the sun
Dreamin' 'bout the bar where the best tales are spun
The fiddles playin' and the stout's flowin' free
Gotta find my way back to where I long to be
Oh the gals so pretty at the bar
Their laughter like a merry star
In this Irish haven I find my glee
Grateful for the nights that set me free
I remember last Friday when the band played loud
Lost in the music with a happy crowd
The smell of barley and the taste of sweet rye
In that cozy corner where the shadows lie
Oh the gals so pretty at the bar
Their laughter like a merry star
In this Irish haven I find my glee
Grateful for the nights that set me free
So pour me a pint let's raise a glass
To the memories made and the moments that pass
The warmth of the fire the joy in my heart
In this Irish folk song I've found my part
Oh the gals so pretty at the bar
Their laughter like a merry star
In this Irish haven I find my glee
Grateful for the nights that set me free
As the night fades away and the stars align
I'll carry these whiskey tales like a sweet old rhyme
Happy Irish and filled with cheer
In this bar I'll always find my dear
Oh the gals so pretty at the bar
Their laughter like a merry star
In this Irish haven I find my glee
Grateful for the nights that set me free
