Seven Nights In Eire |
The first pub we could stagger to was twelve steps from the plane |
A Virgin flight to Shannontown the day it didn’t rain |
The laughing eyes of Ireland sparkling blue and green |
With hair as black as Guinness stout and barely seventeen |
We’re back out on the cobblestones |
Whiskey drunk and high again |
Liquored up and gearing up for seven nights in Ireland |
The corner booth is waiting for the session to begin |
It’s quiet as a mother’s prayer 'till we all stumble in |
And it’s fifty happy voices mixed with whistles made of tin |
And a piper man is blowing like the North Atlantic wind |
And an Aran island beauty is sawing on the violin |
I wonder will she miss me after seven nights in Ireland |
It’s Ladies' Day in Galway and we watched the ponies run |
Fifty pounds against the odds and came in six to one |
McSwiggin heard the race report, he invited us on in |
So we drank Catholic whiskey with all our newfound friends |
They raised a glass to all of us and we all toasted them |
Here’s to Michael, Tom and Pat and seven nights in Ireland |
Well we kissed all the girls goodbye and gathered in our gear |
And when she walked me to the gate I swear I saw a tear |
But then she looked into my eyes I knew she felt my pain |
And only then I realized we were standing in the rain |
So save our places at the pub and when the eyes are dry again |
We’ll come back another day for seven nights in Ireland |
