Lyrics Johnny Jump Up - Christy Moore
Ill
tell
you
a
story
that
happened
to
me
One
day
as
I
went
down
to
Youghal
by
the
sea
The
sun
it
was
high
and
the
day
it
was
warm
Says
I
an
auld
pint
wouldn't
do
me
no
harm
I
went
in
and
I
called
for
a
bottle
of
stout
Says
the
barman
I'm
sorry
the
beer
is
sold
out
Try
whiskey
or
Paddy
ten
years
in
the
wood
Says
I
I'll
try
cider
I've
heard
that
it's
good
O
never
O
never
O
never
again
If
I
live
to
a
hundred
or
a
hundred
and
ten
I
fell
to
the
floor
and
I
couldn't
get
up
After
drinking
a
pint
of
old
Johnny
Jump
Up
After
drinkin'
a
quart
I
went
out
to
the
yard
Where
I
met
up
with
Brophy
the
big
local
guard
Come
here
to
me
boy
don't
you
know
I'm
the
law
So
I
jumped
up
on
the
counter
and
kissed
him
on
the
jaw
We
fell
to
the
floor
and
we
couldn't
get
up
But
it
wasn't
me
kissed
him
twas
the
Johnny
Jump
Up
And
the
next
thing
I
met
down
in
Youghal
by
the
sea
Was
a
poor
man
on
crutches
and
says
he
to
me
I'm
afraid
of
me
life
I'll
get
hit
by
a
car
Would
you
help
me
across
to
the
Railwayman's
Bar?
After
drinkin
a
pint
of
that
cider
so
sweet
He
threw
down
his
crutches
and
danced
round
on
his
feet
A
man
died
in
the
union
by
the
name
of
McNab
They
washed
him
and
shaved
him
and
laid
him
right
out
on
the
slab
And
after
the
undertaker
his
measurements
did
take
His
wife
took
him
home
to
a
very
fine
wake
It
was
about
twelve
o'clock
and
the
beer
it
was
high
The
corpse
he
sat
up
and
says
he
with
a
sigh
I
can't
get
into
heaven
for
they
won't
let
me
up
Till
I
bring
them
a
drink
of
old
Johnny
Jump
Up
O
never
O
never
O
never
again
If
I
live
to
a
hundred
or
a
hundred
and
ten
For
I
fell
to
the
floor
and
I
couldn't
get
up
After
drinking
a
pint
of
old
Johnny
