lyrics

My father was a salesman
He travelled many roads
He talked to many people
He carried many loads
And though I never knew him
I wear his name with pride
Because the day the business ended
Was the very day he died

(CHORUS)
I’m the luckiest guy in Dublin
My heart is green
I’m lovin’ this four leaf clover
I’m 19
X2

My mother was an angel
Gave money to the poor
Took me to mass each sunday
She made me praise the lord
I was raised a good child
Now that I’m a man
You can find me every sunday
With a whiskey in my hand

(CHORUS)

I can’t afford a mortgage
I can’t afford a car
I’ve spent all of my money
On whiskey at the bar
So if you ever find me
Passed out on the floor
Don’t take away my whiskey
ORDER ME SOME MORE!

(CHORUS)
