Bucket Of Mountain Dew
Or sometimes called The Real / Rare / Bucket Full Old Mountain Dew. The full sheet music score is included in the key of G and D Major including letter notes, also known as The Rare Old Mountain Dew, Traditional. I heard the Pogues and the Dubliners do a fine version of this. The Youtube video is of The Dubliners and the Pogues, alas it's hard to come across a decent drop of poteen any more. The Hills Of Connemara song is also written about the making of mountain dey / poteen. The second set of guitar chords in chordpro are set to The Dubliners And Pogues version. The song was also recorded by Foster And Allen, The Clancy Brothers and Tommy Makem and Poitin. Recently recorded by Irish country singer Derek Ryan as part of his Irish Medley set. Now included is the solfege [ Do Re Mi ] sheet music notes. Mountain dew guitar / mandola tab in CGDA tuning added.
Let[D] the grasses grow and the waters flow in a free and easy[G] way,
But[D] give me enough of the[G] rare old stuff that's [D]made near[A] Galway[D] Bay
Come[D] 'goughers all from Donegal , Sligo and Leitrim[G] too
We'll[D] give them the slip and we'll[G] take a sip of the [G]rare old[A] mountain[D] dew
There's a neat little still at the foot of the hill where the smoke curls up to the sky
By a whiff of the smell you can tell right well that there's poitin boys close by
For it fills the air with perfume rare and betwixt both you and me
As home we roll , we can drink a bowl , or a bucket full of mountain dew
Now learned men as use the pen have writ the praises high
Of the rare poitin from Ireland green , distilled from wheat and rye
Away with your pills It'll cure all ills be you pagan Christian or Jew
So take of your coat and grease your throat with a bucket full of mountain dew
