Sing us a song of Erin's green isle
One of wild roving or girls that beguile
Or drinking black porter and going on a spree
Where the mountains of Mourne sweep down to the sea

Hey boys sing us a song
One of the old ones and we'll sing along
None of your protests of struggles and strife
We all need some happiness back in our life

Sing us a song of make-believe days
Where people are thoughtful of each other's ways
Where bias and bigotry never did start
And the dear unicorns they're all safe on the ark

Hey boys sing us a song
One of the old ones and we'll sing along
None of your protests of struggles and strife
We all need some happiness back in our life

Sing us a song where people are free
To live as they want from all tyranny
No pestilence, famine, or fires or floods
And no politicians who are our slinging mud

La La La, La, La La La, La La La La, La, La La La, La La La
La La La, La, La La La, La La La La, La, La La La, La La
La La La, La, La La La, La La La La, La, La La La, La La La
La La La, La, La La La, La La La La, La, La La La, La La

Hey boys sing us a song
One of the old ones and we'll sing along
None of your protests of struggles and strife
We all need some happiness back in our life

Sing us a song where nobody dies
And leaders of governments tell us no lies
Where our sons and our daughters aren't sent off to war
To die for no reason on some foreign shore

Hey boys sing us a song
One of the old ones and we'll sing along
None of your protests of struggles and strife
We all need some happiness back in our life

Hey boys sing us a song
One of the old ones and we'll sing along
None of your protests of struggles and strife
We all need some happiness back in our life

Hey boys sing us a song
One of the old ones and we'll sing along
None of your protests of struggles and strife
We all need some happiness back in our life
