Irish Celebration

Irish Celebration
Im an irish man
leather weathered
isrish skin
Beard Orange as the sunset over the flag
in the night sky we fly it in

Pride for the life we
fight to live history,
I write with it spit it with the dialect and this is a
celebration. Of course
The green, white, orange.
And whe the pulled up on
that shore first generation born
toast to those that made it on
a boat to New York (New York)
And when the englis came
the colonizer came
the filled up bottles of gasoline
turned'em into balls of flame
And hurled 'em to protect
what's ours
Don't touch these lucky charms
whole bunch of irish screaming "Fuck the London Guard"
I'm kidding not dissin' London this bloody war
But go against the Irish and get a bloody jaw
Preaching nonviolence but remins of the scars
And the bias, put a pint up
everyody sing a song
We put our glass to the sky and life up
And live tonight 'cause ypu can't take it with ya
So raise a pint for the people that aren't with us
And live tonight 'cause you can't take it with ya (x2)

From new england to New Brunswick, Galway to Dublin
A rebellious nation of freckled face hustlers
Heart, blue collared workers and family
My heritage, proud to be a Heggerty
Now with whiskey in our veins
Claiming were the bravest men I drank Old Crow
but pretended it was Jemeson dad sipped Guiness
I sipped Old English
'Til he sat me down at 16 and said "Boy, this is what a beer is"
I put down the drink
couldn't drink like a gentleman
That doesn't mean I can't
Make a drinking song for the rest of 'em
Challenge us i football
Yeah we might lose
but don't put us next to a bar stool
We take the history, script it in song
light the torch then you pass it on
that's right I said
lineage through the rhythm we script it from
the palm an we give til'ireland is on bottoms up

We put our glass to the sky and life up
And live tonight 'cause ypu can't take it with ya
So raise a pint for the people that aren't with us
And live tonight 'cause you can't take it with ya (x2)
