Horse
walks into a bar, orders a beer, sits down at one of the
tables, and starts reading his paper.
The bartender is a bit shocked by all this, but pours the
beer, and brings it over to the horse, who proffers a ten
dollar bill for it. Now the barman figures the horse isn't
that bright, so he decides to pull the old 'short-change'
trick on him. He duly goes back to the horse with 1 dollar.
The horse doesn't say a word.
The horse eventually finishes his beer and goes up to the
bar to order another. Says the bartender to him, "Y'know,
we don't get many horses in here."
To which the horse replies, "At nine dollars a beer,
I'm not surprised!"
Yup. Barack Obama, 44th President of the good old
USA is as Irish as Bono. His great-great-grandfather came from Moneygall
in County Offaly.
To celebrate, we present the song 'There's No One as Irish as Barack Obama',
sung by Hardy Drew and the Nancy Boys. It became an instant big hit on
YouTube, getting nearly 400,000 views in the first two weeks.
The band have been invited to Washington DC by Irish American Democrats
to perform at Obama's inauguration party on 19th of Janurary 2009. Go
Irish!
So get practising! To help you out, here's the words
of the song:
