lirik lagu robbie o’connell - you're not irish
[verse 1]
when first i came to the usa with my guitar in hand
i was told that i could get a job singing songs from ireland
so i headed up to boston, i was sure it would be alright
but the very first night i got on the stage, i was in for a big surprise
they said:
[chorus]
you’re not irish, you can’t be irish, you don’t know “danny boy”
or “toora loora loora” or even “irish eyes”
you’ve got a h~ll of a nerve to say you came from ireland
so cut out all the nonsense and sing “mcnamara’s band”
[verse 2]
to tell the truth i got quite a shock and i didn’t know what to say
so i sang a song in gaeilge, i thought that might win the day
but they looked at me suspiciously and i didn’t know what was wrong
then all of a sudden they started to shout “now sing a rеal irish song”
[chorus]
you’re not irish, you can’t be irish, you don’t know “danny boy”
or “toora loora loora” or evеn “irish eyes”
you’ve got a h~ll of a nerve to say you came from ireland
so cut out all the nonsense and sing “mcnamara’s band”
[verse 3]
the next day i was on my way, for chicago i was bound
i was ready to give it another try and not let it get me down
from the stage they looked quite friendly but i’d hardly sung one word
when a voice called out from the back of the room and what do you think i heard?
[chorus]
you’re not irish, you can’t be irish, you don’t know “danny boy”
or “toora loora loora” or even “irish eyes”
you’ve got a h~ll of a nerve to say you came from ireland
so cut out all the nonsense and sing “mcnamara’s band”
[verse 4]
now i’ve travelled all round the country, but it’s always been the same
from la to philadelphia, and from washington to maine
but sometimes now i wonder if it’s a secret society
and it doesn’t matter wherever i go, they’ll be waiting there for me
saying:
[chorus]
you’re not irish, you can’t be irish, you don’t know “danny boy”
or “toora loora loora” or even “irish eyes”
you’ve got a h~ll of a nerve to say you came from ireland
so cut out all the nonsense and sing “mcnamara’s band”
