Eddie Morton In Ireland lyrics
In Ireland
Eddie Morton
GENRE
[Verse 1]
If you should go to Ireland, the place you'll never know
The dear old land's completely changed from days of long ago
The fine ol' Irish families who made the country grand
They all have sailed across the seas...to rule in Yankeeland!
[Chorus]
In Ireland, In Ireland
Yeah, the old place isn't like it was before
They hear the King and then salute him
Regular Irishmen would shoot him
Ireland isn't Ireland anymore
[Verse 2]
The Sullivans, and Crawfords too, are men of Irish birth
Their fighting fathers tried to wipe ol' England off the earth
But now King Ed is [?] families
And soon King Ed will have the nerve to visit [?]!
[Chorus]
In Ireland, In Ireland
Yeah, the old place isn't like it was before
When you see men like Richard Crawford
Playing the King of England proper
Ireland isn't Ireland anymore
[Verse 3]
There's no more [pink?] in Ireland, from Dublin up to Cork
It's getting so there's no one there will eat a piece of pork
And up around [Callan?], there's a man named Izzy [Cone?]
He's [?] to sell them for cologne
[Chorus]
In Ireland, In Ireland
Yeah, the old place isn't like it was before
They call their babies Hans and Herman
Everyone there is talkin' German
Ireland isn't Ireland anymore
[Verse 4]
In Dublin's finest restaurant, it's quite beyond belief
They told me no-one ever calls for cabbage or corned beef
Eight Irishmen were at the bar, they acted very queer
Instead of drinkin' whiskey they...all ordered lager beer!
[Chorus]
In Ireland, In Ireland
Yeah, the old place isn't like it was before
There was one young Irish fellow
He had a glass of sarsaparilla
Ireland isn't Ireland anymore
If you should go to Ireland, the place you'll never know
The dear old land's completely changed from days of long ago
The fine ol' Irish families who made the country grand
They all have sailed across the seas...to rule in Yankeeland!
[Chorus]
In Ireland, In Ireland
Yeah, the old place isn't like it was before
They hear the King and then salute him
Regular Irishmen would shoot him
Ireland isn't Ireland anymore
[Verse 2]
The Sullivans, and Crawfords too, are men of Irish birth
Their fighting fathers tried to wipe ol' England off the earth
But now King Ed is [?] families
And soon King Ed will have the nerve to visit [?]!
[Chorus]
In Ireland, In Ireland
Yeah, the old place isn't like it was before
When you see men like Richard Crawford
Playing the King of England proper
Ireland isn't Ireland anymore
[Verse 3]
There's no more [pink?] in Ireland, from Dublin up to Cork
It's getting so there's no one there will eat a piece of pork
And up around [Callan?], there's a man named Izzy [Cone?]

Ireland isn't Ireland anymore
