Only Ronnie could sing an Aussie Song with a Dub. accent and make it sound fantastic . R.I.P. Ronnie. This was a big hit all over the world including Ireland way back..
You heard the one about the young Irish Guy that started drinking.....All his mates in the pub were shouting at him..."get it into it'll make a man out of you"...two hours later his mates are outside the pub clapping him on the back and saying "get it up you'll feel better"
First heard this song sung by a 9 year old classmate in class at school in Dublin. 1958. The teacher always called up young Bertie Murphy, to sing it to us all on last days of term. He had a wonderful voice, that Bertie Murphy.
One of the all time best May this morning be the beginning of something miraculous in your life! God bless you! Good morning Rachel☀️🦋🦋☀️☀️🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🏵️🌺☀️ morning 🌅
@9milliedilly I never had that growing up. All American Blue Grass on the radio, no musicians in the house. Now I'm the dad singing and playing fiddle every night. I wonder if my 6 and 8 year old will think back on today many years from now and have the same emotions and fond memories you have when they hear these old songs years from now. The Dubliners, Barleycorn, and Clancy's are our biggest influences of course.
@1916dnicolas The older your 6 and 8 year olds get the more they will appreciate their Dad - I'm willing to bet. Sometimes my brother and I used to tear our hair out when the banjo started, now we would give an arm and a leg just to hear him one more time, and that's a fact. Keep fiddling, not many Dads are able.! 9milliedilly
Must admit the Slim Dusty original 1957 version is the one I was brought up on and some words are changed on this version. The Dubliners are however a great band , classic.
Great song, it also inspired the extremely downbeat Town With No Cheer by Tom Waits. “When my wife heard that for the first time she said: “Oh gee, you must have loved her very much.” So I said: “Wait a minute. This is not a love song. This is about a guy who can’t get a drink!” It’s about a miserable old town in Australia that made the news when they shut down the only watering hole."
Dear all, in fact this is a flemish song, written by Bobbejaan Schoepen, known as "Een café zonder bier". Let's say, it's a great honnor this song has been translated into the English language! Enjoy!
@@stripedturtle7589 Hey David, sorry bur I wasn't joking. My information tells me that this song is originally written by Bobbejaan Schoepen in 1959, with the title "Cafe zonder bier". If you search on www, you'll find more information. But if you have other information, I'm glad to hear. Best regards. Geert.
Originally written by Stan Coster and performed by the late great Slim Dusty - The Pub With No Beer can be found at Taylor's Arm up on the mid north coast of New South Wales, Australia
your both idiots, the song which is being sang is not the poem, the song was written by the great late Gordon Parsons and past onto Slim Dusty to help him with his career, Gordon wrote alot of song, if you dont know who is was you dont know dick about australia country music.
It was written by Gordon Parsons and recorded by slim dusty who were both born in New South Wales, He did get the idea from a poem that was written by an irish man, but this is pretty much australian
It comes from from the original poem "A Pub Without Beer" by Dan Sheahan a cane cutter of Ingham, North Queensland (originally from Newmarket, Ireland) In 1957 it was made famous by Slims, But it was written by an irish hand.
@beamerball666 I couldn't agree more. Budweiser is the King of beers for those who don't know what beer is. Microbreweries alone will satisfy my thirst for the good stuff!
The meaning of the song is pretty clear; the pub has no damn beer. But yes, the reason was due to american troops. the real HISTORY of the song itself goes as follows: a Queenslander called Dan sheahan (originally from ireland) wrote a poem, the music itself was composed by an Australian composer called Gordon Parsons and the song was made famous by Slim Dusty and hit number one (the first Australian song to go gold) from then on it went famous and was covered by the likes of the Dubliners.
@dannyinaus Guess where Most of the Aussies came from when it was still a colony? That would be Ireland. As the other lad said, the song was written by an Irishman about an Australian incident caused by Americans. It happens... be calm.
@Mechknight73 in fact this is a flemish song, written by Bobbejaan Schoepen, known as "Een café zonder bier". Let's say, it's a great honnor this song has been translated into the English language! Enjoy!
Luke Kelly was possibly the greatest singer in the history of popular music, but the Dubliners sounded just as good with Ronnie Drew filling in on lead vocals.
@sezzza91 The song was adapted by Gordon Parsons from the original poem "A Pub Without Beer" by Dan Sheahan of Ingham, North Queensland (originally from Newmarket, Ireland)...so its an Irish in origin.
@japierce15 @Drunkcox707 Wikipedia says that enslaved/African Americans made the banjo, adapted from several African instruments of the same basic design. Wich would make sense since many Irish people went to America in the time enslaved africans were in America. Maybe an Irish that went back to Ireland brought it home etc etc etc
@fearfeasa1 Ah, thanks for that! I was trying to remember what song the melody was from. So, it's a sped up version of Stephen Foster's Beautiful Dreamer! I must have listened to this song a dozen times trying to figure that out. In other words, the tune is American, and the words are Australian. It's not Irish at all, but the Irish still do it well!
Only Ronnie could sing an Aussie Song with a Dub. accent and make it sound fantastic . R.I.P. Ronnie. This was a big hit all over the world including Ireland way back..
Did you know it was an Irishman living in Australia who wrote words, written as a poem and printed in local paper!
@@jennic9076 I didn't know that Jenni...It's a great old song...In my local he would have to change the words to.."A Pub With No Barman"..l.o.l.
from slim dusty is the original
Such a depressing song...I cant imagine a pub with no beer. It brings a tear to my eye. Happy saint paddys day everyone
It might actually be what hell is?
@@blickluke It just may be...
@@Jzs20 wow ten year on and ur still here replying to comments,,that’s amazing! This song will always be gold take care
@@callen.6371 Absolute classic. I still listen every paddy's day. Cheers!!
This depresses Australians in the bush even more.
I read somewhere that this song, released in the fifties by Slim Dusty, went to number one in Ireland. When you think about it, makes absolute sense!
You heard the one about the young Irish Guy that started drinking.....All his mates in the pub were shouting at him..."get it into it'll make a man out of you"...two hours later his mates are outside the pub clapping him on the back and saying "get it up you'll feel better"
My Dad used to tonk the old banjo and sing this to me, many years ago - he even
sounded like them !!
May this morning be the beginning of something miraculous in your life! God bless you! Good morning Rosemary☀️🦋🦋☀️☀️🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🏵️🌺☀️ morning 🌅
God bless ‘em. We’ve lost a great band alas.
What sad!!! The Pub with no beer. So marvelous Ronnie Drew 's voice !!!
An Australian classic. There's also a sequal to this song explaining how the pub managed to get some more beer in.
First heard this song sung by a 9 year old classmate in class at school in Dublin. 1958. The teacher always called up young Bertie Murphy, to sing it to us all on last days of term. He had a wonderful voice, that Bertie Murphy.
This played at my Dad's funeral, after he died of liver failure, caused by drinking, lol
Sounds like a good man. Rest easy there fella.
One of the all time best

Fitting. Sorry for your trouble.
Ah, yes, irish are just the human version of irony
Such a sad, sad song!!

@@user-lt2gh7ig6k name checks out :)
A truly great song sung brilliantly.

a pub with no beer isn't a pub! Great song!!
Thats pub was in Australia back in the 50s
This is the late great Slim Dusty's major hit. And the Dubs do a great job of it
I want to learn to play this song. I think my friends would love it.
Thank you. I can't wait to play this.
Slim Dusty sang this. I remember it well, growing up in West Australia out in the bush where pubs could run out of beer :)
I cannot imagine anything more drear, than to stand at the bar of a pub with no beer!
Mi grandma use to play this song, we played it every time a family gatherin were around lol good times
haven't heard this in years! brilliant!

czcams.com/video/8E0aZ387M_I/video.html
I've no problem with changed words but they also left out the swaggie line.
The dubs are legendary i must give slims one a listen
im a mexican and i love the dubliners and there best songs
Aussie song this.
Thanks ,have on vinyl great to find on here .
I love the song!
Great song, it also inspired the extremely downbeat Town With No Cheer by Tom Waits.

Ronnie drew and luke Kelly legends
Saw the title on Pandora and thought "this is a Irish song of mourning".
Mad me cry, in an Irish pub with no beer!
All time favorite
how interesting an Irish ban singing a song from Australia!
Usually it's the other way round!
@Adrianu Cilli I dated a few when I was in Ireland
Try the Dubliners now im easy or them singing the band played waltzing matilda. Both written by a Scots-oz but very much Australian songs.
Apparently Dan Sheahen, an Irish guy in Australia penned it.
What a great song.
I always knew the Flemish (Belgium) translation.
This is the most depressing, heart-breaking song ever. T_T
ma da loved this
Might play one day !
This song was written by Dan Sheahan (born in Cork, Ireland 1882, passed Ingham, Australia 1976).
It was written by Gordon Parsons.
I love this song! I remember first hearing it in that relatively lame movie "Duplex" with Ben Stiller...but it's a great song!

Great song. Great lyrics.

Joe Hupp nup nup nup. Poem by Dan Sheenan, made into a song by old GP about a pub in Ingham in QLD.

the movie duplex brought me here!
my legs will never dare to walk me in that Pub
It's been a while since I've had my favorite beer, which is Blue Moon (the white ale)
GREAT CLASSIC INTRO
Still listening 2022
its an Irish song about an australian pub
Great song
Here from Duplex!!
The melody is "Beatiful dreamer", composer Stephen Foster, 1826 - 1864, american, irish origin.
One of the saddest songs ever written !
sad but true
Best joke in the world.
"Dreams of silver and dreams of gold"
2021 we have pubs with no beer!
Its a said day for music when bieber is metioned on a dubliners page.
love them
Ronnie -- ya bowsie, oh how me miss you !
It was written by Gordon Parsons and recorded by slim dusty who were both born in New South Wales, He did get the idea from a poem that was written by an irish man, but this is pretty much australian
I miss me da
Hear! Hear!
true dat !
It comes from from the original poem "A Pub Without Beer" by Dan Sheahan a cane cutter of Ingham, North Queensland (originally from Newmarket, Ireland) In 1957 it was made famous by Slims, But it was written by an irish hand.
Sounds like the UK!

King of beers? You've never been to Burton on Trent and supped a pint of Marstons Pedigree. How sad
@@michaelburke445 The King of Beers...for those who don't know what beer is.
Maybe that should be a PUB.

Wilf Carter made a good recording of this song as well, but I like this Version by Ronnie Drew and the Dubliners best of all.
Ah well, always the whiskey left ;)

I trust everyone is aware that here in Australia this is considered to be the greatest of tragedies.
@laochgael1 Slim Dusty adapted the original poem to song. All song versions are drawn from Slim Dusty's version.
So, in answer, Slim Dusty.
Is a sad sad place
Luke Kelly was possibly the greatest singer in the history of popular music, but the Dubliners sounded just as good with Ronnie Drew filling in on lead vocals.
6 people really did find a pub with no beer - I can't blame them for negativity hehe
This has got to be the saddest song I've ever heard.
I love the almost squeaky sound of the violin. It accentuates the whining of the pub patrons...
no place for a dog, not a pub with no beer. lmao
thats a good line in a quality song lol
With the lorry driver shortage in Britain, it's being reported that this is no longer a joke ...
is it really!! it sounded borrowed, I'm a yank and missed that one heh. Great tune!!!
19 people went to this pub.
....tapping foot...
@sezzza91 The song was adapted by Gordon Parsons from the original poem "A Pub Without Beer" by Dan Sheahan of Ingham, North Queensland (originally from Newmarket, Ireland)...so its an Irish in origin.
Written in Australia mate.
Let's at least agree, that it's a great song! dM, SiTU Harns
@Fizzyskull ill just be content with the fact that it was an irish poet who composed it which is hardly suprising
@Fizzyskull irish born is irish forever wee man that dont change
Nothing more depressing than a pub with no beer
Early in the 70 S there was a strike at the Guinness brewery in Dublin . The pubs ran out of Guinness . B
haha good song it would be bad a pub with no beer depressin
Only possible song for Scotland, 7th October 2020.🤣😁
beer with no pub is better than pub with no beer :)
It should be called a country with no pubs and beer
@Drunkcox707 I enjoy my Whiskey but I also enjoy my Guinness Stout, I think the only good beer that America brews is anything brewed by Samuel Adams
@japierce15 @Drunkcox707 Wikipedia says that enslaved/African Americans made the banjo, adapted from several African instruments of the same basic design. Wich would make sense since many Irish people went to America in the time enslaved africans were in America. Maybe an Irish that went back to Ireland brought it home etc etc etc

In other words, the tune is American, and the words are Australian. It's not Irish at all, but the Irish still do it well!
Can I ask when this song first appeared in Ireland? I don't know whether any of you have heard of Slim Dusty, but his first version surfaced in 1956
I recall this song sang in the 1950's when I was a child and we learned the words and sang it too.
This song is officialy Belgian !
