T. Ora Finneran - Irish In Us All Lyrics

Oh McGuffey had been a choir boy
And always went to Mass
But he had his eyes
On the neighbor's wife
Cause she had a nice round ass
And then one day
With husband away
McGuffey made a sinful call
Not to fault McGuffey
It's the Irish in us all

Oh the Irish in us all
It makes our men to brawl
It leads the ladies shady
And then from grace they fall
So if your feeling ornery
And do things you cant recall
Don't take the blame or feel the shame
It's the Irish in us all

Oh Megan was a pretty lass
As pure as the white driven snow
And when went a dancin'
She always had a chaperone
But then one time while still in her prime
She ventured out alone
And McGuffey came a courtin'
And lost was that cherry red rose

Oh the Irish in us all
It makes our men to brawl
It leads the ladies shady
And then from grace they fall
So if your feeling ornery
And do things you cant recall
Don't take the blame or feel the shame
It's the Irish in us all

McGuffey came to America
Wanted to live in a special state
Where the coast is rocky
& the girls are cocky
Tall Trees Mt Hood
Three sisters in that place
But his travel agent liked to imbibe
Had one to many Guinness
And 'the itinerary got all f*cked up
And he ended up in
The Oregon District

Oh the Irish in us all
It makes our men to brawl
It leads the ladies shady
And then from grace they fall
So if your feeling ornery
And do things you cant recall
Don't take the blame or feel the shame
It's the Irish in us all

Oh McGuffey he got hungry
Went searching for some Irish fare
Walked the streets of the town up & down
Until he found a tavern within his stare
Ah he was almost famished
But had no money for his grubb
He thought Im feeling pretty good
Ill play for my food
And that's how he ended up at the Dublin Pub

Oh the Irish in us all
It makes our men to brawl
It leads the ladies shady
And then from grace they fall
So if your feeling ornery
And do things you cant recall
Don't take the blame or feel the shame
It's the Irish in us all

Lets raise a glass to this Irish toast
Leprechauns castles good luck and laughter
Lullabies dreams and love ever after
Poems and songs with pipes and drums
A thousand welcomes when anyone comes
That's the Irish in us all

Oh the Irish in us all
It makes our men to brawl
It leads the ladies shady
And then from grace they fall
So if your feeling ornery
And do things you cant recall
Don't take the blame or feel the shame
It's the Irish in us all
