Boys Be Home Lyrics

At five o'clock the bell will ring

And then the beer'll be near

We'll drop our fears and raise our cheers

And drink 'til mornin' dawn

When the boys be home again

Yes, the boys be home again

Oh, the boys be home again

My father told me Son, work hard

And then you'll have your share

But I'm still waitin' for my riches

In my pot of gold

For that I do not care

Not much I have, I swear

But this drink with you I'll share

At five o'clock the bell will ring

And then the beer'll be near

We'll drop our fears and raise our cheers

And drink 'til mornin' dawn

When the boys be home again

Yes, the boys be home again

Oh, the boys be home again

They say home is a family

With spirits who all love

I hold my lover with a fist

And raise her for a kiss

Inside this waterin' hole

In the presence of my boys

In the presence of my home

At five o'clock the bell will ring

And then the beer'll be near

We'll drop our fears and raise our cheers

And drink 'til mornin' dawn

When the boys be home again

Yes, the boys be home again

Oh, the boys be home again

I am Irish, I am proud

Yeah, I've been beaten down

Hit me once, I'll hit you twice

And then it will be clear

Oh I will still be here

Standing with no fear

Then I'll give you some my beer

At five o'clock the bell will ring

And then the beer'll be near

We'll drop our fears and raise our cheers

And drink 'til mornin' dawn

When the boys be home again

Yes, the boys be home again

Oh, the boys be home again
