It's a Great Day for the Irish

It's a Great Day for the Irish - Connie Francis (康妮 法藍西斯)

Oh I woke me up this morning and

I heard a joyful song

From the throats of happy Irishmen

A hundred thousand strong

Shure 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 meself a shamrock just to wear in me lapel

Don't you know that today's

March seventeen

It's the day for the wearing of the green

It's a great day for the Irish

It's a great day for fair

The side walks of New York

Are thick with Blarney

For shure you'd think New York was old killarney

It's a great day for the

Shamrock for the flags in full array

We're feeling so inspirish shure because for all

The Irish

It's a great great day

It's a great day for the shamron

For the flags in full of ray

And as we go swinging every irish for the singing

It's a great great day
