“Whiskey Bells and Holly Halls” (Extended Version)
⸻
Verse 1
Oh the snow is fallin’, the fire’s aglow,
And the pints are poured as the cold winds blow.
We’ve got holly on the ceiling, mistletoe on the floor,
So raise up your glasses, let’s sing once more!
The cows are snuggled, the sheep are asleep,
But we’re wide awake with a pint to keep.
From Dublin to Cork, from Galway to Clare,
We’re jinglin’ and drinkin’ without a care!
⸻
Chorus
🎶 Whiskey bells and holly halls,
St. Patrick’s spirit in Christmas calls!
Clap your hands and stomp your feet,
Sing with joy and spill your sweet!
Raise your glass, make a toast tonight,
Irish hearts are merry and bright! 🎶
⸻
Verse 2
Old Santa stumbled into O’Malley’s bar,
Said, “I’ve dropped my sleigh and my reindeer are far!”
We laughed so hard, he spilled his rum,
Said, “I thought I’d land where the pubs are fun!”
Mrs. Claus joined with a twinkle in her eye,
She danced a jig and let out a cry.
“More Guinness!” she shouted, “and don’t be shy,
Let’s drink ‘til the stars light the winter sky!”
⸻
Chorus
🎶 Whiskey bells and holly halls,
St. Patrick’s spirit in Christmas calls!
Clap your hands and stomp your feet,
Sing with joy and spill your sweet!
Raise your glass, make a toast tonight,
Irish hearts are merry and bright! 🎶

Verse 3 — The Rowdy Revelers
The neighbors came with their fiddles and flutes,
And the dog was dancing in Santa’s boots.
We sang loud carols with whiskey cheer,
And even the cat joined in with a meow so clear!
The fire roared high, the ceiling shone bright,
We toasted to friends and the long winter night.
From Kerry to Limerick, the laughter rang true,
With a pint in one hand, and a hug in the other too!
⸻
Chorus
🎶 Whiskey bells and holly halls,
St. Patrick’s spirit in Christmas calls!
Clap your hands and stomp your feet,
Sing with joy and spill your sweet!
Raise your glass, make a toast tonight,
Irish hearts are merry and bright! 🎶

Verse 4 — Santa’s Irish Adventure
Santa then tried an Irish jig, oh my!
He twisted and turned like a reindeer in the sky.
He fell in the snow with a Guinness in hand,
And declared, “I’m now a part of this land!”
We poured him some Bailey’s, we handed him pie,
He winked at the elves with a mischievous eye.
“Next year,” he said, “I’ll come back for more,
And I’ll leave the sleigh at the pub by the door!”
⸻
Verse 5 — The Final Toast
So here’s to the nights with laughter and cheer,
To pints of stout and loved ones near.
May your Christmas be merry, your spirits high,
And your whiskey never run dry!
We’ll sing and we’ll stomp, and we’ll jig till dawn,
Till Santa and friends have all gone home.
But the memories linger, the stories we tell,
Of a Christmas in Ireland that turned out quite well!
⸻
Final Chorus — Big Festive Finish
🎶 Whiskey bells and holly halls,
St. Patrick’s spirit in Christmas calls!
Clap your hands and stomp your feet,
Sing with joy and spill your sweet!
Raise your glass, make a toast tonight,
Irish hearts are
Haymaker
