Old songs and old stories they keep us alive Without our past, we would never survive I am my island, my island is me So you know what you can do If you don’t like what you see
(Chorus) Kiss me I’m Irish I am the Wild Rover My eyes they are smiling And I’m seldom sober I like my whiskey And I love to dance So if you’re feeling as lucky as me Take a chance… And kiss me I’m Irish
My Heart beats a jig and me blood it flows green I’ve been a rogue and a rambler from ocean to sea. And I like a ‘bevy’, now and then, that I’ll never deny But I only drink on the days of the week that end with a ‘Y’ I’m no saint, I’m no sinner, of that there’s no doubt. I’ll tell ya the truth I am the one That your grandmother warned you about!
(Repeat Chorus) Kiss me I’m Irish I am the Wild Rover My eyes they are smiling And I’m seldom sober I like my whiskey And I love to dance So if you’re feeling as lucky as me Take a chance… And kiss me I’m Irish
Dublin, Milwaukee, Cleveland and Cork Kerry, Chicago, Armagh and New York Belfast and Boston, Donegal and DC Raise your glasses and sing, sing, sing with me!
(Repeat Chorus) 2x Kiss me I’m Irish I am the Wild Rover My eyes they are smiling And I’m seldom sober I like my whiskey And I love to dance So if you’re feeling as lucky as me Take a chance… And kiss me I’m Irish
