Kiss my irish ass
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Oh the churchbells are ringin' in the schoolyard,
And we all went out those days
The bully said "Mick would you fancy a rumble?"
I said "Yes, it's time to play!"
Oh the nuns and the priests they grabbed their
Rosaries
As they pulled our bodies apart
The bully said "Mick you lost the fight, but you
gained my respect!
You fight with so much heart!"
We're as stubborn as mules
With our blood on fire
When we ain't at Sunday mass
We'll look any man straight in his eyes and say
Kiss my Irish ass!
You better kiss my Irish ass!
Oh the husbands and wives, they had a neighborhood
pack
They called 'em "Maggies White Trash Band" (White
Trash!)
I was way too young to understand that
But if I did, I'd given right back
Oh me dad, he'd be drunk on the lawn,
Yelling and screaming like he do
Sometimes my old man felt what he was feeling,
Sometimes Mr. Mackey(not sure on the name) spoke the
truth
We're as stubborn as mules
With our blood on fire
When we ain't at Sunday mass
We'll look any man straight in his eyes and say
Kiss my Irish ass!
You better kiss my Irish ass!
Oh me grandpa passed through Ellis Island,
From the greatest of the Motherlands
For he worked, provided for his family
He was a dedicated welding man
And he knew right from wrong like day and night,
He could whip any fool in a bareknuckle fight
He talked of country like he preached of God,
One hell of an Irishman!
We're as stubborn as mules
With our blood on fire
When we ain't at Sunday mass
We'll look any man straight in his eyes and say
Kiss my Irish ass!
You better kiss my Irish ass!
Oooohh, I'm of a distant relation to John Redman,
He was one of the greatest Irish Rebels of his day
One bastrard to another, on down the line
And this is what my son will say:
We're as stubborn as mules
With our blood on fire
When we ain't at Sunday mass
We'll look any man straight in his eyes and say
Kiss my Irish ass!
We're as stubborn as mules
With our blood on fire
When we ain't at Sunday mass
We'll look any man straight in his eyes and say
Kiss my Irish ass!
You better kiss my Irish ass!
