The Irish Side of Life

[Verse 1]
When you are feeling Down,
and it's not in the County,
Do what any good Irishman would do.
Go grab yourself a Guinness;
Just think on all the bounty!
And this will help things work out best for you...

[Chorus]
And... always look on the Irish side of Life...
Always look on the Irish side of Life...

[Verse 2]
If life is short on tunes
on all your Sunday afternoons,
head over to O'Briens and get your Irish on.
Give a hearty 'Erin Go Bragh',
(That's Gaelic, no Francois!)
and enjoy the music of our happy session!

[Chorus]
And... always look on the Irish side of Life...
Always look on the Irish side of Life...

[Verse 3]
Come hear of Molly Bahn -
she looked nothing like a swan -
and songs of drinking, love and war and death.
Don't worry for your spouse; they can wait at the house.
So what's a wee bit of Bushmill's on your breath?

[Chorus]
And... always look on the Irish side of Life...
Always look on the Irish side of Life...

[Verse 4]
Grab a shirt of kelly green,
and a flask of some poteen,
get rowdy, and shout a rebel song!
It's easy to be Irish,
even with no hair of reddish.
Just talk with a brogue as you go along.

[Outro]
And... always look on the Irish side of Life...
Always look on the Irish side of Life...
(Faith and begorah, me lads!)
Always look on the Irish side of Life...
Always look on the Irish side of Life...
(So what time does the pub open?)
Always look on the Irish side of Life...
(We need to toast ol' Paddy Murphy!)
(Have Johnson fire up that car! Such a Wild Rover, that one.
Let's hit the Mountain Road, head to Lisdoonvarna...)
Always look on the Irish side of Life...
