Verse:
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
Verse
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!
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
Bridge:

Chorus x2:
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
