Collection of Irish Song Lyrics
Irish Pub Song
Well, you're walkin' through a city street,
you could be in Peru
And you hear a distant calling
and you know it's meant for you
Then you drop what you were doing
and you join the merry mob
And before you know just where you are,
you're in an Irish pub
CHORUS
They've got one in Honolulu,
they've got one in Moscow too
They got four of them in Sydney
and a couple in Kathmandu
So whether you sing or pull a pint,
you'll always have a job
'Cause where ever you go
around the world
you'll find an Irish pub
Now that design is fairly simple
and it usually works the same
You'll have 'Razor Houghton' scoring
in the Ireland, England game
And you know you're in an Irish pub
the minute you're in the door
For a couple of boys with bodhrans
will be murdering Christy Moore
CHORUS
Now the owner is Norwegian
and the manager comes from Cork
And the lad that's holding up the bar
says 'Only Eejits Work'
He was born and bred in Bolton
but his mammy's from Kildare
And he's going to make his fortune soon
and move to County Clare
CHORUS
Now it's time for me to go,
I have to catch me train
So I'll leave ye sitting at the bar
and face the wind and rain
For I'll have that pint you owe me,
if I'm not gone on the dry
When we meet next week in Frankford
in the fields of Athenry
CHORUS
