Lyrics Raise the Roof

Well it started here in Ireland a century ago
In a ale house in a village to the north of south Mayo
Someone started singin'
A couple of more joined in
And before the night was o'er they met the rafter's rain
The session we had started
A fiddler played along
Somebody pumped the goat skin
They call it a bodhran
Melodion, chimes and whistles
You couldn't hold them back
And that was when it all began the thing they called a crack
Raise the roof
Raise the roof
You'll be guaranteed the crack is ninety proof
You're invited one and all
It's a place to have a ball
You'll be welcome if you call
Raise the roof
Now it wasn't very long before it spread from town to town
From Dingle up to Derry down to Upton up to down
It spread across from Galway to Dublin, Derry and back
So loud and bold they couldn't control the thing they called a crack
From the Irish Éire the greater they sailed across the pond
To England and America
Australia and beyond
The ship was fairly landed when the first thing they would do was open up an Irish pub and teach the natives too
Raise the roof
Raise the roof
You'll be guaranteed the crack is ninety proof
You're invited one and all
It's a place to have a ball
You'll be welcome if you call
Raise the roof
Raise the roof
Raise the roof
You'll be guaranteed the crack is ninety proof
Leave your worries at the door
Come in and take the floor
You'll be comin' back for more
Raise the roof
Now the terror of few to picture up the pact to spread around
From Waterloo to Timbuktu
Irish pubs are found
The minute you walk into the room you'll feel yourself on mine
So leave your peers and worries and your therapist behind
Raise the roof
Raise the roof
You'll be guaranteed the crack is ninety proof
You're invited one and all
It's a place to have a ball
You'll be welcome if you call
Raise the roof
Raise the roof
Raise the roof
You'll be guaranteed the crack is ninety proof
Leave your worries at the door
Come in and take the floor
No matter where you roam this is home away from home
It's the perfect antidote
Throw away your doctor's note
Just stand up and clear your throat and raise the roof
Raise the roof
Raise the roof
