Gaelic Storm

Johnny Jump Up

I'll tell you a story that happened to me
One day as I went down to Yawl by the sea
The sun it was bright and the day it was warm,
Says I, "a quiet pint wouldn't do me no harm"
I went in to the barman, and says "give me a stout"
Says the barman, "I'm sorry, all the beer is sold out
Try whiskey or vodka, ten years in the wood"
Says I, "I'll try cider, I've heard that it's good."
(Chorus:)
Oh never, oh never, oh never again
If I live to a hundred or a hundred and ten
'Cause I fell to the ground and I couldn't get up
After drinking a pint of the Johnny Jump Up
