Lyrics
Everybody’s Irish on St. Patrick’s Day
©2016 by Marla Lewis
Hundred fifty thousand marchers
Two million line the street
For the big St. Patrick’s Day Parade
On March the Seventeenth
All Irish Eyes are smilin’
And green is everywhere
There’s a Leprechaun here spyin’
I can feel it in the air!
Celebrate Ireland
The marchin’ band’s a-comin’
Ireland
The pipes begin to play
Celebrate Ireland
You hear the drummers drummin’?
Everybody’s Irish on Saint Patrick’s Day!
Hear the Fire Engines blarin’
Hook and Ladder Number 8
Look, there’re pipers dressed in kilts of plaid
Playin’ Amazin’ Grace
Here come the Irish Dancers
A-Steppin’ to and fro
And on a shamrock float
The Old Grand Marshall waves hello!
Celebrate Ireland
The marchin’ band’s a-comin’
Ireland
The pipes begin to play
Celebrate Ireland
You hear the drummers drummin’?
Everybody’s Irish on Saint Patrick’s Day!
Oh, my shirt is green, my shoes are green
My reds are green, my blues are green!
The corned beef and the cabbage, too,
The soda bread, the Irish stew
The blarney’s green, and so, I’m told
Are the fiddle, the harp and the pot of gold!
The streets are green, the rivers too
Now I am green, and so are you!
