Shove Around the Jug

Shove around the jug me boys

around the room

We're the boys that fear no noise

Although we're far from home

I courted a girl in Albany

One in Montreal

One in Philadelphy

But the best in Lewiston Falls

So shove around the jug me boys

around the room

We're the boys that fear no noise

Although we're far from home

When you get to Albany

Give the girls a call

There's not a tart to be compared

With the ones from Lewiston Falls

So shove around the jug me boys

around the room

We're the boys that fear no noise

Although we're far from home

When I came on from Ireland

I was just a lad

But working these canal boats

Is the only life I've had

So shove around the jug me boys

around the room

We're the boys that fear no noise

Although we're far from home

A dollar in the tavern

Is very easy spent

If I'd had it in Ireland

I'd have to pay down rent

So shove around the jug me boys

around the room

We're the boys that fear no noise

Although we're far from home

Amsterdam or Liverpool

Rome or Syracuse

You'd ever been to Lewiston Falls

It's the only place you'd choose

So shove around the jug me boys

around the room

We're the boys that fear no noise

Although we're far from home

A drunkard in the tavern

A fish is in the sea

The cork is in the bottle

But the whiskey is in me

So shove around the jug me boys

around the room

We're the boys that fear no noise

Although we're far from home

Oh shove around the jug me boys

around the room

We're the boys that fear no noise

Although we're far from home
