Pogues?

[Klaus Von Konrad]

I was at a bar and I heard a song that I did not know. It sounded very Pogues-like (it might be the Pogues). The song starts out with some Irish prose:

blah blah blah thres shakes to the wind, three shakes to the wind...

It then starts to jam very punk-rock like. The song ends with Irish prose also.

Might have been Flogging Molly or Dropkick Murphys.

If it was the last song they played before closing, I'm with Ollie on this one - Dropkick Murphys - but I can't remember the name of the freaking song!

Thanks a lot guys. The song is "Rebels of the Sacred Heart" by Flogging Molly. The lyric is "Three sheets to the wind" not "three shakes to the wind" Here is a sample clip:
