[C] One pleasant evening in the month of June
As [G] I was sitting with my [C] glass and spoon
A small bird sat on an [F] ivy bunch
And the [C] song he [F] sang [C] was "The [G] Jug Of [C] Punch" 

[C] Too ra loo ra loo, too ra [F] loo ra lay, 
too ra [G] loo ra loo, too ra [C] loo ra lay
[C] A small bird sat on an [F] ivy [G] bunch
And the [C] song he [F] sang [C] was "The [G] Jug Of [C] Punch" 

What [C] more diversion can a man desire?
Than to [G] sit him down by snug [C] turf fire
Upon his knee a [F] pretty wench
And [C] on the [F] ta-[C]ble a [G] jug of [C] punch 

[C] Too ra loo ra loo, too ra [F] loo ra lay, 
too ra [G] loo ra loo, too ra [C] loo ra lay
Upon his knee a [F] pretty [G] wench
And [C] on the [F] ta-[C]ble a [G] jug of [C] punch 

Let the [C] doctors come with all their art
They'll [G] make no impression u-[C]pon my heart
Even a cripple for-[F] gets his hunch
When he's [C] snug out-[F]side [C] of a [G] jug of [C] punch 

[C] Too ra loo ra loo, too ra [F] loo ra lay, 
too ra [G] loo ra loo, too ra [C] loo ra lay
Even a cripple for-[F]gets his hunch
When he's [C] snug out-[F]side [C] of a [G] jug of [C] punch 

And if [C] I get drunk, well, the money's me own
And if [G] they don't like me they can [C] leave me alone
I'll tune me fiddle and I'll [F] rosin me bow
And [C] I'll be [F] wel-[C]come where-[G]ever I [C] go 

[C] Too ra loo ra loo, too ra [F] loo ra lay, 
too ra [G] loo ra loo, too ra [C] loo ra lay
I'll tune me fiddle and I'll [F] rosin me bow
And [C] I'll be [F] wel-[C]come where-[G]ever I [C] go 

And [C] when I'm dead and in my grave
No [G] costly tombstone [C] will I have
[C] Just lay me down in my [F] native peat
With a [C] jug of [F] punch [C] at my [G] head and [C] feet 

[C] Too ra loo ra loo, too ra [F] loo ra lay, 
too ra [G] loo ra loo, too ra [C] loo ra lay
Just lay me down in my [F] native peat
With a [C] jug of [F] punch [C] at my [G] head [G7] and [C] feet

Info: The Clancy Brothers were an influential Irish folk music group that developed initially as a part of the American folk music revival. Most popular during the 1960s, they were famed for their Aran jumper sweaters and are widely credited with popularising Irish traditional music in the United States and revitalising it in Ireland, contributing to an Irish folk boom with groups like the Dubliners and the Wolfe Tones.

The Clancy Brothers, Patrick Clancy, Tom Clancy, and Liam Clancy, are known best for their work with Tommy Makem, recording almost two dozen albums together as The Clancy Brothers and Tommy Makem.

On 12 March 1961, the Clancy Brothers and Tommy Makem performed for around fifteen minutes in front of a television audience of forty million people for the first time on The Ed Sullivan Show.[9] A previously scheduled artist did not appear that night, and the Clancy Brothers and Tommy Makem were given the newly available time slot on the show, in addition to the two songs they had initially planned to do. The televised performance and the success of the Clancys' and Makem's nightclub performances attracted the attention of John Hammond of Columbia Records. The group was offered a five-year contract with an advance of $100,000, a huge sum in 1961. For their first album with Columbia, A Spontaneous Performance Recording, they enlisted Pete Seeger, one of the leaders of the American Folk Revival, as backup banjo player. The record included songs that would soon become classics for the group, such as "Brennan on the Moor", "Jug of Punch", "Reilly's Daughter", "Finnegan's Wake", "Haul Away Joe", "Roddy McCorley", "Portlairge" and "The Moonshiner". The album was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Folk Recording in 1962
