The Real Old Mountain Dew


      D                         G
Ah didlee ay dum ah diddlee ay dum
      D                            A7
Ah doo ray diddlee ai ay
      D                          G
Ah didlee ay dum ah diddlee ay dum
     D            A7             D
Ah doo ray diddlee ai ay

      D                            G
Let grasses grow and waters flow
        D                    A7
In a free and easy way
        D                                   G
Just give me enough of that fine old stuff
           D                A7        D
That's made near Galway Bay
       D                        
The police men from old Donegal
                          Bm7 A7
Sligo and Lietrin too
         D                                          G
We'll give them the slip and we'll take a sip
             D          A7            D
Of that real old Mountain Dew   CHORUS

         D                                     G
At the foot of the hill there's a neat little still
                  D                                 A7
Where the smoke curls up to the sky
            D                                            G
By the smoke and the smell you can plainly tell
             D       A7                D
There's poitin brewin near by
    D
It fills the air with a perfume rare
                                        Bm7 A7
But betwixt both me and you
          D                                G
When home we go you can take a bowl
        D                    A7           D
Or a bucket of the Mountain Dew    CHORUS

        D                           G
Now learned men who use a pen
         D                             A7
Have wrote your praises high
         D                          G
That sweet poitin from Ireland green
     D                A7             D
is stilled from wheat and rye
       D                            
Put away your pills, it'll cure all ills
                                         Bm7   A7
Be ye Christian, pagan or Jew
        D                          G
Take off your coat and grease your throat
           D                    A7            D
With a bucket of the Mountain Dew    CHORUS
