  G G  intro

  

  (G)If you had the (C)luck of the (G)Irish

  (Bm)You'd be sorry and (C)wish you were (D)dead

  (G)You should have the (C)luck of the (G)Irish

  And you'd (Bm)wish you was (D)English (G)instead!

  

  A thousand years of torture and hunger

  Drove the people away from their land

  A land full of beauty and wonder

  Was raped by the British brigands! Goddamn! Goddamn!

  

  If you could keep voices like flowers

  There'd be shamrock all over the world

  If you could drink dreams like Irish streams

  Then the world would be high as the mountain of morn

  

  In the 'Pool they told us the story

  How the English divided the land

  Of the pain, the death and the glory

  And the poets of auld Eireland

  

  If we could make chains with the morning dew

  The world would be like Galway Bay

  Let's walk over rainbows like leprechauns

  The world would be one big Blarney stone

  

  Why the hell are the English there anyway?

  As they kill with God on their side

  Blame it all on the kids the IRA

  As the bastards commit genocide! Aye! Aye! Genocide!

  

  If you had the luck of the Irish

  You'd be sorry and wish you was dead

  You should have the luck of the Irish

  And you'd wish you was English instead!

  Yes you'd wish you was English instead!
