Try this one from the excellent folk/viking metal band Moonsorrow:
:D

Tulkaapa äijät

Tulkaapa äijät, nyt ryypätään kun minun hautajaiseni on.
Itse kun tänne kuoppaan suistuin seuraksenne vain taivu en.

Kuten sinä, kuten minä, vaikka te taikka me;
kunhan vain saamme juodaksemme.
Hei tulehan ja kuule kuinka iloisesti kilahtaa
se malja juoka nyt tyhjennämme.

Tulkaapa Markus, Mitja, Marko ja Henri
hilpeät veikot riimukivelle,
Kun tässä kerran jo istuttu on niin reilut kännit
kiskaiskaamme.

Hautakiveeni saa kaivertaa tilaisuus kun siihen on:
"Tässä lepää ja aikaansa viettää juoppolalli verraton."


Translation by Dark Lyrics:
Come Along Fellows!

Come along fellows, let's booze all night for it is now my funeral.
I just slipped into this grave and can't keep you company

Just like you as well as me, just like any of us near;
as long as we get to drink our beer.
Hey stop by to listen how merrily it clinks
as we raise a chalice to be emptied here

Come now Markus, Mitja, Marko and Henri,
the merry men on my burial ground.
Now that we1ve sat here for long enough,
it would be time to get real drunk.

I would be glad if someone carved these honest words on my tombstone:
"Underneath you lies and rests one excellent, unrivalled sot."



I think it's originally Swedish (Kom nu gubbar). So far this is the only drinking song I can bare to listen to when I'm sober also. :lol:

I know they're not finish but they work well!

Alestorm - Nancy the Tavern Wench
I know of a tavern not far from here
Where you can get some mighty fine beer
The company's true and the wenches are pretty
It's the greatest damn place in the whole of the city
If you're looking for crewmates, you'll sure find 'em there
Cutthroats and lowlifes and worse I should dare
Ol' Nancy don't care who comes to her inn
It's a den of debauchery violence and sin

So come take a drink and drown your sorrows
And all of our fears will be gone til tomorrow
We'll have no regrets and live for the day
In Nancy's Harbour Cafe

If you're looking to go on a glorious quest
There's a man there who knows of an old treasure chest
For some pieces of eight an a tankard of ale
He'll show ye the map and tell ye it's tale
And then there's Nancy, the lovely barmaiden
She may be old but her beauty ain't fading
Ol' nancy don't care who comes to her inn
It's a den of debauchery violence and sin

So come take a drink and drown your sorrows
And all of our fears will be gone til tomorrow
We'll have no regrets and live for the day
In Nancy's Harbour Cafe
Alestorm - Wenches and Mead
When I come back from a mighty quest
I have no need for sleep or rest
I head to a tavern for a drink
And get so drunk I cannot think
A wench by my side and a jug of mead
These are the things that I most need
So I sit back and sing this song
And drink and party all night long

Hey! Hey!
I want more wenches
Hey! Hey!
More wenches and mead
Hey! Hey!
I want more wenches
Lots of wenches is what I need

When I come back from a mighty quest
I have no need for sleep or rest
I head to a tavern for a drink
And get so drunk I cannot think
A wench by my side and a jug of mead
These are the things that I most need
So I sit back and sing this song
And drink and party all night long

Hey! Hey!
I want more wenches
Hey! Hey!
More wenches and mead
Hey! Hey!
I want more wenches
Lots of wenches is what I need
