Lemme you a little story a man named Johnny Tarr He was a drinking son of a preacher at the bar
Lager the tap Or shots of from the shelf He could his throttle And throw a bottle As as the Devil himself, Johnny Tarr
And the got around That Tarr was no pretender From Claire to here they'd up the beer When went on a bender
Down at Dickey The Sun, or at the Swan He was at seven, by ten to eleven Well, all the booze would be gone, Johnny
And even if you saw it yourself, you believe it But I wouldn't trust a like me, if I were you Sure I wasn't there, I I have an alibi I heard it from a man who a fella who says it's true
It was nine in the On a cold and night Johnny walked into the Bar Looking to get
He had in his pocket He had in his eye He said, "Get up off asses And set up the I'm drinking place dry"
Now all the serious They soon broken hearted When finished off six And he was getting started
Guzzling the pints Knockin' em back like He was lookin' alright to be all night Then Nora out the brandy, Johnny Tarr
And even if you saw it yourself, you wouldn't it But I wouldn't trust a like me, if I were you Sure I wasn't there, I I have an alibi I heard it from a man who knows a who says it's true
Johnny drank the whole bottle Had another or two When it no impression He a session with Murphy's Millennium Brew
He was waiting for his When his turned green Jesus, Johnny fell After fifteen
And you heard a pin drop the crowd let out a roar It five Cork women To Johnny off the floor
The looked him over And said, "Better the hearse But not what you're thinkin' It wasn't the this man died of thirst" Johnny Tarr
And even if you saw it yourself, you believe it But I wouldn't trust a person like me, if I you Sure I wasn't there, I I have an alibi I heard it from a man who knows a fella who says true
And if you saw it yourself, you wouldn't believe it But I wouldn't trust a person me, if I were you I wasn't there, I swear I have an alibi I heard it from a man who knows a fella who says true
