It's A Great Day For The Irish

It's A Great Day For The Irish - Connie Francis (康妮 法藍西斯)

Written by：Roger Edens

Oh I woke me up this mornin' and I heard a joyful song

From the throats of happy Irishmen a hundred thousand strong

Sure it was the Hibernian brigade

Lining up for to start the big parade

So I fetched me Sunday bonnet and the flag I love so well

And I bought myself a shamrock just to wear in me lapel

Don't you know that today's March seventeen

It's the day for the wearin' of the green

It's a great day for the Irish

It's a great day for fair

The sidewalks of New York are thick with blarney

For sure you'd think New York was Old Killarney

It's a great day for the shamrock

For the flags in full array

We're feelin' so inspirish

Sure because the all the Irish

It's a great great day

It's a great day for the shamrock

For the flags in full array

And as we go a-swingin'

Every Irish heart is singin'

It's a great great day
