I celebrate also with a Black and Tan. Pour in Bass Ale first then add Guinness. The drink symbolizes the brutal repression by British paramilitary forces over the Irish seeking independence.
One Lyric;
'Come Out Ye Black and Tans'
"I was born on a Dublin street where the royal drums did beat
And the loving English feet walked all over us,
And every single night when me father’d come home tight
He’d invite the neighbors outside with this chorus:
(chorus) Oh, come out you black and tans,
Come out and fight me like a man
Show your wife how you won medals down in Flanders
Tell her how the IRA made you run like hell away,
From the green and lovely lanes in Killeshandra."
