(John Lawless)
On the night before I sailed away, they come from far and near.
All me friends and all me kins had shared a parting tear.
We knew we never meet again, and yet was clear to see.
I’d always be a part of them and them a part of me.

I’ll always be Irish.
’cause that’s how I began.
I’ll always be Irish.
I’ll say that to any man.
And when I’m an American.
I’ll be a good one too.
I’ll be truly as American as Irish stew.

(Cordy et Monsieur Biddle)
He’ll be truly as American as Irish stew.

(John Lawless)
Ask for Irish stew in Ireland and see what you’ll get. In Ireland, all the stew is Irish.

I’ll always be Irish.
A fact I’ll not deny.
I’ll always be Irish.
And I’ll hold me head up high.
I’ll wear the greens on Patty’s Day.
And it weren’t all of that.
I’ll be truly as American as Casey At The Bat.

(Cordy et Monsieur Biddle)
He’ll be truly as American as Casey At The Bat.

(John Lawless)
If I went to Tibet, I’ve got me a yak.
And trapped in Siberia riding his back.
The peasant. What would they say ?
Irishman ?

(Cordy et Monsieur Biddle)
Right.

(John Lawless)
Now.
What if I went to Spain and grew a mustache.
Strung the guitar and worn me a sash.
Became a toreador and fought me a bull ?
After one in both ears and the tail, what would they say ?

(Cordy et Monsieur Biddle)
Ole.
We’ll always be Irish.

(John Lawless)
I’ll shout it good and loud.

(Cordy et Monsieur Biddle)
We’ll always be Irish.

(John Lawless)
Mother’s heritage be proud.
I’m proud of Irish blarney.
And Irish sentiment.
And I’ll bet someday we’ll get an Irish president.

(John Lawless, Cordy et Monsieur Biddle)
And I’ll bet someday we’ll get an Irish president.
