Paddy Kelly is my name, making home brew is my game
And I live away up there behind the hill
I can make a drop that's pure and there's nothing it won't cure
It surpasses any medicine or pill
For it tastes as sweet as honey as it trickles down your throat
It looks as clear and pure as morning dew
It can make a fellow sing though he didn't have a note
Won't you try a drop of Paddy Kelly's Brew
It can cure your rheumatism, it can cure a wheezy chest
It can cure you of the gout and gallstones too
It cures toothache, headache, backache, falling hair and all the rest
Fallen arches, corns and bunions and the flu
For it tastes as sweet as honey as it trickles down your throat
It looks as clear and pure as morning dew
It can make a fellow sing though he didn't have a note
Won't you try a drop of Paddy Kelly's Brew
Any summer day you'll find me poachin' salmon in the glen
Or setting snares for rabbits on the hill
But the nicest thing of all is when evening shadows fall
Just to watch the bottles filling from my still
For it tastes as sweet as honey as it trickles down your throat
It looks as clear and pure as morning dew
It can make a fellow sing though he didn't have a note
Won't you try a drop of Paddy Kelly's Brew
I've a pound or two to spend, I've a bottle for a friend
I've got customers galore who buy my brew
At a wedding or a wake, I supply the stuff they take
And I keep a good supply the whole year through
For it tastes as sweet as honey as it trickles down your throat
It looks as clear and pure as morning dew
It can make a fellow sing though he didn't have a note
Won't you try a drop of Paddy Kelly's Brew
Now, I know you will confess that the world is in a mess
And the politicians don't know what to do
I'll supply them with a plan that will cure the ills of man
Throw away the guns and hand out Kelly's Brew
For it tastes as sweet as honey as it trickles down your throat
It looks as clear and pure as morning dew
It can make a fellow sing though he didn't have a note
Won't you try a drop of Paddy Kelly's Brew
(repeat) For it tastes as sweet as honey as it trickles down your throat
It looks as clear and pure as morning dew
It can make a fellow sing though he didn't have a note
Won't you try a drop of Paddy Kelly's Brew
