Ohhh we...... had a little party down in Newport
There was Harry, there was Mary, there was Grace
Oh we had a little party down in Newport
And we had to carry Harry from the place
Oh we had to carry Harry to the ferry (to the ferry)
Oh we had to carry Harry to the shore (to the shore)
And the reason that we had to carry Harry to the ferry
Was that Harry couldn't carry anymore!
California! California!
The hills send back the cry
We're out to do or die!
California! California!
We'll win the game and know the reason why!
And when the game is over we will have a keg of booze
And drink to california till we waddle in our shoes
So drink, tralala
Drink, tralala
Drink, drank, drunk last night
Drunk the night before
Gonna get drunk tonight like I never was drunk before
Cos when I'm drunk, I'm happy as can be
Cos I am a member of the Souse family
And the Souse family is the best family
That ever came over from old Germany
There's the highland Dutch and the lowland Dutch
The Rotterdam Dutch and the Irish!
Sing glorious, victorious
One keg of beer for the four of us
Sing glory be to God that there are no more of us
Cos one of us could drink it all alone, damn near!
Here's to the Irish, dead drunk!
The lucky stiffs.....
They had four fifths....
A keg or two....
Of homemade brew....
And there was grandmaSitting on the outhouse doorWithout her nightie......And there was grandpaWishing he could get some moreBut he was eighty....Don't you know you gotta GO BEARS!!!
