In Irish air you smell the sea |
|
The taste of turf and tasty tea |

The scent of stout will ever be |
|
A part of Ireland's heart |

A quit his boring job |
|

|
Sat on his ship completely bored |
|
Till someone threw him overboard |
|
He shivered in the cold |
|
...but he was well! |
|
...got strong like hell! |
|
...he found his way! |
|
...swam all the day! |
|
In Irish air you smell the sea |
|
The taste of turf and tasty tea |
|
The scent of stout will ever be |
|
A part of Ireland's heart, Cause |
|
In this air |
|
The clouds glow red in the sky ahead and |
|
Everywhere |
|
You'll find a place to start |

A fisherman from Killybegs |
|
A grumpy man, he always nagged |
|
Till he turned out to be a wag |
|
And laughed his life away |
|
A teacher from the eastern Hills |
|
He smoked like hell, took lot of pills |
|
Till he discovered the real thrills |
|
He bummed around and bawled |

But then he stopped with all his boast |
|
And changed into a mate |
|
A baker boy from Donegal |
|
A weedy guy, extremely small |
|
Ate soda bred till he was tall |
|
And grew right to the sky |
|
An engineer from Galway Town |
|
Was fat and clearly upside down |
|
He went around wearing a gown |
|
He didn't give a damn |
|
...he loved his dress! |
|
...felt happiness! |
|
...he danced around! |
|
...and lost eight pounds! |
