The 14th day of February's for Saint Valentine
September 29th is when Saint Michael's faithful dine
On April 23rd we hail Saint George without restraint
And come November 1st we cheer for every b***** saint
But none of those can claim the very best day of the year
'Cause on March 17th we praise the patron saint of beer!
But wait! Don't cheer for greenish beer or Irish cream liqueur
Because the man you toast was one devout teetotal-er!
Saint Patrick never drank! (Hey!)
Saint Patrick never drank! (Hey!)
'Twas only clear, unleaded stuff he poured into his tank!
He'd take the cash you spend for drafts and stash it in the bank! (Hooray!)
Heroic, true, but stoic too!
Saint Patrick never drank!
He strode with ancient warriors from coast to plain to highland
His staff he'd shake till every snake was banished from the island
He taught his fans the shamrock stands for Father, Son, and Spirit
But don't break out the Guinness Stout - the man would not go near it!
Saint Patrick didn't drink! (Hey!)
Saint Patrick didn't drink! (Hey!)
He never tossed a bracer back or teetered on the brink!
So pour another tall one, lad, then pour it down the sink! (Hooray!)
With piety, sobriety!
Saint Patrick didn't drink!
Saint Patrick never drank! (Hey!)
Saint Patrick never drank! (Hey!)
So let's be frank: When asked his favorite beer, he drew a blank!
By gosh, if he could see you sloshed, he'd give your tush a spank! (Hooray!)
The guy was swell - but dry as hell!
Saint Patrick never drank!
No, Saint Pat - rick - nev - er - drank!
