Hey! whisky, you're the divil
You're leading me astray
Over hills and mountains
And to Americay
You're sweeter, stronger, decenter
You're spunkier than tea
Oh whisky, you're me darling drunk or sober

Oh now brave boys we're on for marching
Up to Portugal and Spain
Drums are beating, banners flying
The devil a-home will come tonight
Love, fare thee well
With me tiddly-idle-doodle-a-ma-da
Me tiddly-idle-doodle-a-ma-da
Me rightful to-ra-laddie-oh
There's whisky in the jar

Hey! whisky, you're the divil
You're leading me astray
Over hills and mountains
And to Americay
You're sweeter, stronger, decenter
You're spunkier than tea
Oh whisky, you're me darling drunk or sober

Said the mother, "Do not wrong me
Don't take me daughter from me
For if you do I will torment you
And after death me ghost will haunt you"
Love, fare thee well
With me tiddly-idle-doodle-a-ma-da
Me tiddly-idle-doodle-a-ma-da
Me rightful to-ra-laddie-oh
There's whisky in the jar

Hey! whisky, you're the divil
You're leading me astray
Over hills and mountains
And to Americay
You're sweeter, stronger, decenter
You're spunkier than tea
Oh whisky, you're me darling drunk or sober

Now the French are fighting boldly
Men are dying hot and coldly
Give every man his flask of powder
His firelock on his shoulder
Love, fare thee well
With me tiddly-idle-doodle-a-ma-da
Me tiddly-idle-doodle-a-ma-da
Me rightful to-ra-laddie-oh
There's whisky in the jar

Hey! whisky, you're the divil
You're leading me astray
Over hills and mountains
And to Americay
You're sweeter, stronger, decenter
You're spunkier than tea
Oh whisky, you're me darling drunk or sober

Come Fill Your Glass With Us: Irish Songs of Drinking & Blackguarding (1959)

I see someone has had a wee dram of the ol' mountain dew.
Wonder who though? I don't recall any distinctly Irish characters in Symphony.

Polychrome

I can think of one or two in the cast in general..

My first thought was, "Well, at least Rahne's not singing 'Killiecrankie' again." True, she's not Irish, but it seems like an appropriate song for her otherwise.
