Say Ireland Songtext / Lyric

When words fail you

Don't say why

Say Ireland

Say Ireland

And I'll tell you why



When bombs dismay you

Don't just cry

Cry Ireland

Cry Ireland

Cry Ireland

Cry Ireland

And I'll tell you why

[How much time have you got?]






Where are my Irish roots

Where did I get those boots

Why do I not like suits and ties

And why so shy in front of people

It's on top of a steeple that I belong



Far from the maddening crowd

As far as I am allowed

Far from the maddening crowd

As far as I am allowed

Far from the maddening crowd

As far as I am allowed

And the crack was in the ceiling



Say Ireland...(Ireland)...Say.(Ireland)

When words fail you

Don't say why

Say Ireland say Ireland
