Standard (EADGBE)

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 ‘

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

Dublin, Milwaukee, Cleveland and Cork

Kerry, Chicago, Armagh and New York

Belfast and Boston, Donegal and DC

Raise your glasses and sing, sing, sing with me!

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
