THE BARTENDER'S GUIDE AND SONG BOOK

HIBERNIAN

The St. Patrick's Day Special.

If

you want to

know where St. Patrick drove all the snakes, when

he drove them out of Ireland, take about six of

these.

You'll

see

plenty.

HIGH·LAND

FLING

Better known as the death-defier. A good

Scotchman can make this one last almost six

months. Don't teach this one to the girl-friend.

She'll be too inclined to have her FLING.

.......

HORSE GUARDS

Only a war rior can really control this one. Give

two rounds of this with the proper ammuni–

tion and a platoon can route a regiment. To be

served only to men in uniform. (Pajamas were

ours.)

HORSE'S NECK

W e've been playing with this one for years, but we

never have found out why it's called a HORSE'S

NECK, when it might very well be called after

some other part of a horse. Or why not a cow, or a

sheep or a pi g?

All

in favor of changing it to a

PIG'S NECK say "aye"
