Lyrics
The Irish Are Coming
[Verse] Beneath the smoke The cobblestone cry Whiskey runs through veins Ain't no sly From Liffey's banks to New York's flare The Irish are coming Beware Beware [Verse 2] With rusty shovels and tales untold Grit under nails Hearts lined with gold Streets of Erin weave stories bold From green fields to where dreams unfold [Chorus] The Irish are marching Conquerin' the night With stories and laughter In shadows of light From pubs fillin' corners To tunes of the street In New York they're settlin' Where strangers meet [Verse 3] Songs of rebellion Voices like steel Echo in alleys The pipe's ardent squeal Under the bridges where secrets reveal The Irish uprising Too fierce to conceal [Verse 4] Brick by brick the city shall hear Accents of brogue No tremor of fear They rise from the under Their culture to steer Through laughter and whisky It's crystal clear [Chorus] The Irish are marching Conquerin' the night With stories and laughter In shadows of light From pubs fillin' corners To tunes of the street In New York they're settlin' Where strangers meet
