dönersem!

Maybe someday, I'll go back again to Ireland

If only my dear wife would pass away

She nearly has my heart broke with all her naggin

She's got a mouth as big as Galway Bay

.

See her drinkin 16 pints of Pat's blue ribbon

And then she can walk home without a sway

If the sea were beer instead of salty water

She would live and die in Galway Bay

.

See her drinkin 16 pints at pat joe murphys

When the barman says "I think its time to go"

She doesn't try to speak to him in Gaelic

But a language that the clergy do not know

.

On her back she has tatooed a map of Ireland

And when she takes her bath on Saturday

She rubs the sunlight soap around by Claddaugh

Just to watch the suds roll down on Galway Bay

The Clancy Brothers/Galway Bay
