About this song

A new Dwarf was added to the party, one that has issues

Lyrics

[Intro - Stomping rhythm, tavern crowd noise]

[Verse 1 - Male, Baritone]
Born beneath the mountain stone
Ailguard blood and Ailguard bone
Silver locks and silver eyes
Hammered steel beneath the skies
Forge ran hot since I was thirty
Hands like iron, mouth ran dirty
Every blade I bent and beat
Paid for with another's meat

[Pre-Chorus]
They say a smith should know his place
Keep his head down, guard his face
But I never learned that trade
I drink first and then get paid

[Chorus - Group Vocals]
I'm the drunken blacksmith, hammer in my hand
I'll shoe your horse or break your jaw
Depending on my plans
Pour another round, boys, the forge is burning bright
I'm the drunken blacksmith
And I'm drinking through the night

[Verse 2 - Male, Baritone]
Walked into a tavern hall
Smelled like blood and alcohol
Some fool pointed at my chair
Said hey short stuff, over there
I stood up, all five foot two
Said friend I've got a hammer too
But mine ain't hanging on no wall
Mine's the one that breaks your skull

[Pre-Chorus]
They say a dwarf should dig for gold
Do what he's told, grow old
But I was born to swing and drink
And I don't care what tall folk think

[Chorus - Group Vocals]
I'm the drunken blacksmith, hammer in my hand
I'll shoe your horse or break your jaw
Depending on my plans
Pour another round, boys, the forge is burning bright
I'm the drunken blacksmith
And I'm drinking through the night

[Bridge - Slower, deeper vocals]
Anram bless this heavy hand
God of war, you understand
Courage ain't the absence of the fear
It's swinging anyway
And ordering another beer

[Chorus - Full Group, Building]
We're the drunken blacksmiths, hammers in our hands
We'll forge your swords or start a brawl
Depending on our plans
Pour another round, boys, the forge is burning bright
We're the drunken blacksmiths
And we're drinking through the night

[Outro - Chanted]
Hammer down! Drink up!
Hammer down! Drink up!
[End]
