Damien Dempsey (nascido em 1975 no subúrbio de Dublin, capital da Irlanda) é um cantor e compositor irlandês.
Dempsey, em suas músicas, mixa o tradicional folk irlandês com letras contemporâneas a fim de comentar sobre os aspectos positivos e negativos que estão surgindo junto à crescente economia da República da Irlanda. Ele canta em inglês e, em algumas raras ocasiões, em irlandês.

Intro: C#mBAB x 2
C#m You look around, you say what's up B You see another Irishman taking to the 'sup AB You see that's the way, that's the way they came C#m You look around, you say what's up B You see another paddy and he's taking to the 'sup AB You see that's the way, that's the way they came
BAE Take me out on the jar today BAE We'll drink stout and we'll be okay BAE We might get our holes tonight BAEE We'll get in a fight alright
BAE Brendan Behan was a friend of mine BAE He loved the bars and he drink cheap wine BAE Get outta his mind with a lad and lass BAEE He'd ride them both and then go to mass
BAE Shane McGowan loves Dublin town BAE I drank with him once and woke up on the ground BAE Maybe someday we'll meet up and do 'brunch' BAE Some beers and a shandy too
C#m You look around, you say what's up B You see another Irishman taking to the 'sup AB You see that's the way, that's the way they came C#m You look around, you say what's up B You see another paddy and he's taking to the 'sup AB You see that's the way, that's the way they came
BAE Luke Kelly meant a lot to me BAE He sang from in here and then swigged his beer BA If ordering pints was a crime EBAE He'd be in Mountjoy for eternity
BAE Christy Moore was an awful whure BAE He'd drink potcheen 'til the bogs were clean BAE He brought me great joy since I was a boy BAE The day he went dry the publican cried
C#m You look around, you say what's up B You see another Irishman taking to the 'sup AB You see that's the way, that's the way they came C#m You look around, you say what's up B You see another paddy and he's taking to the 'sup AB You see that's the way, that's the way they came
BAE Take me out on the jar today BAE We'll drink stout and we'll be okay BAE We might get our holes tonight BAE We'll get in a fight alright
