    Lyrics
    I dreamt a dream the other night I couldn't sleep a wink
    The rats were tryin' to count the sheep and I was off the drink
    There were footsteps in the parlour and voices on the stairs
    I was climbin' up the walls and movin' round the chairs.
    I looked out from under the blanket up at the fireplace.
    The Pope and John F. Kennedy were starin' in me face.
    Suddenly it dawned at me I was getting the old D.T.s
    When the Child o' Prague began to dance around the mantlepiece.
    Goodbye to the Port and Brandy, to the Vodka and the Stag,
    To the Schmiddick and the Harpic, the bottled draught and keg.
    As I sat lookin' up the Guinness ad I could never figure out
    How your man stayed up on the surfboard after fourteen pints of stout.
    Well I swore upon the bible I'd never touch a drop.
    My heart was palpitatin' I was sure 'twas going to stop,
    Thinkin' I was dyin' I gave my soul to God to keep.
    A tenner to St. Anthony to help me get some sleep.
    I fell into an awful nightmare - got a dreadful shock.
    When I dreamt there was no Duty-free at the airport down in Knock.
    George Seawright was sayin' the rosary and SPUC were on the pill.
    Frank Patterson was gargled and he singin' Spancil Hill.
    Goodbye to the Port and Brandy, to the Vodka and the Stag,
    To the Schmiddick and the Harpic, the bottled draught and keg.
    As I sat lookin' up the Guinness ad I could never figure out
    How your man stayed up on the surfboard after fourteen pints of stout.
    I dreamt that Mr. Haughey had recaptured Crossmaglen
    Then Garret got re-elected and gave it back again.
    Dick Spring and Roger Casement were on board the Marita-Ann
    As she sailed into Fenit they were singin' Banna Strand.
    I dreamt Archbishop McNamara was on Spike Island for 3 nights
    Havin' been arrested for supportin' Traveller's rights.
    I dreamt that Ruairi Quinn was smokin' marijuana in the Dail
    Barry Desmond handin' Frenchies out to scuts in Fianna Fail.
    Goodbye to the Port and Brandy, to the Vodka and the Stag,
    To the Schmiddick and the Harpic, the bottled draught and keg.
    As I sat lookin' up the Guinness ad I could never figure out
    How your man stayed up on the surfboard after fourteen pints of stout.
    I dreamt of Nell McCafferty and Mary Kenny too
    The things that we got up to, but I'm not tellin' you.
    I dreamt I was in a jacuzzi along with Alice Glenn
    'Twas then I knew I'd never ever, ever drink again.

    I was introduced to Christy Moores music by a friend of mine from Dublin back in 1996. I didn’t find out until many years later that being adopted as a child in the early 70’s, I was mostly Irish!
    While I grew up in an Italian family, thanks to Catholic Charities, I’m mostly Irish!

    i met Christy one evening on his way into an AA meeting in my school a couple of years after he released this song... i still have the autograph and he is such a lovely man - and with him being from Newbridge, that's a big thing for a Naas man to say
    Respect & Peace ☘
