Favorite pub songs that people sing along with .. .
You know how you go to bars and when certain songs come on the jukebox everyone seems to sing along and somehow know the words to? The girls anyway . . .
List your top one, five, ten . . whatever. The ones you would put together for a mix tape . . .

Patty-cake, patty-cake,
Not as good as SHEET!
Anything by CAKE.
"The Stripper" should be taken off of all jukeboxes. You try having a woman jump out of your fluffy moist insides.

In Bloomington: "Never Wanna F'n See You Again" by Rich Hardesty. Play that on the jukebox at Kilroy's and everybody sings along!

I think most people go for oldies because more people know the words, but I could be wrong.
Piano Man (or almost anything else by) - Billy Joel
Build Me Up, Buttercup
Sweet Home Alabama - Lynard Skynard
We Are Fam-A-Lee ('burgh only)
Runaround Sue - Del Shannon (?)
Hey Jude - the Beatles
Friends - Bette Midler
And none of the above are "my" karaoke songs!

I Love Rock & Roll
Goodbye Earl (well, at least the "Earl had to die" part)
Summer Nights
I Will Survive
And I used to go to a bar where everyone would sing along with Hank Williams Jr's Family Tradition, and would add the following:
Why do you drink? To get drunk
(Hank) Why do you roll smoke? To get stoned
Why must you live out the songs that you wrote? To get laid

LOL - Irish songs are a whole new catagory!
Oh, Dear, What Can the Matter Be? is one of my favorites.

When I read the thread title, I figured that was the catagory -- Irish and British pub songs. Pub=British/Irish to me, while bar=American.
I'll add these pub songs to the list:
She Was Poor but She Was Honest
I've Got a Lovely Bunch of Coconuts
My Old Man's a Dustman
As for bar songs, I'd have to add:
Stand By Your Man
Don't You Want Me
Wild Thing (The Troggs)
House of the Rising Sun
Shout (thanks to "Animal House")

Yep, that's what I remember most from college fraternity parties!
My husband's uncle used to own a biker bar in SC, and some popular choices there were:
Freebird (Lynard Skynard)
Anything Bocephus (Hank Williams Jr for any of you who don't know his nickname)
Angel (Aerosmith... hey, these bikers had a soft side)
Wanted Dead or Alive (Bon Jovi)
Man in the Box (Alice in Chains)
