Old 97's – Irish Whiskey Pretty Girls lyrics

One, two, three, four

[Chorus]
Thank God for Irish whiskey
Thank the Devil for pretty girls
Make a mess of all us lucky boys

[Verse]
I got 99 things to be thankful for
But a half a clue ain't one
I got 99 problems I can't solve
But a big girl would be fun

I never was good at numbers
So imagine my surprise
I got 96 tears and only these two eyes

[Chorus]
Thank God for Irish whiskey
Thank the Devil for pretty girls
Be the death of all us lucky boys

Thank God we got these guitars
In this devil of a world
Turn it up, make a little noise

[Solo]

[Verse]
I got a real good reason for stayin' here
That I can't recall right now
I got a few choice things to tell you
But I choose to keep it down

I never was good at talking
Graveyard whistling's more my thing
I got 96 tears and only one wedding ring

[Chorus]
Thank God for Irish whiskey
Thank the Devil for pretty girls
Shine a light on all us lucky boys

Thank God we got these guitars
In this devil of a world
Turn it up, make a little noise

[Bridge]
Big green bottles in a row
All lined up, nowhere to go
Yeah, I had big plans
In and out of my hands
Help me, help me sing it real loud

[Chorus]
Thank God for Irish whiskey
Thank the Devil for pretty girls
Be the death of all us lucky boys

Thank God we got these guitars
In this devil of a world
Turn it up, make a little noise
Turn it up, make a little noise, yeah
Turn it up, make a little noise
