Walk in the Irish Rain

Irish Song Lyrics - Walk in the Irish RainAuthor: Spurgin

When the sun goes down o'er Dublin town
The colors last for hours, oh
The lights come on, the night's a song
And the streets all turn to gold.

A gentle mist all heaven kissed
Like teardrops off an angel's wing
Don't you know you'll cleanse your soul
With a walk in the Irish rain.

CHORUS
Oh Katherine take my hand
I've got three pounds and change
And I'll sing you songs of love again
And when I get too drunk to sing...
We'll walk in the Irish rain

Forever more I've stepped ashore
My sailing days are over, oh
Through time and tide and by your side
Together we'll grow old.

I threw my sea bag in the bin
And brought these pretty flowers home
Kiss me Kate, we'll celebrate
Before the bloom is gone CHORUS

A tinker and a tailor and a drunken old sailor
They all get together and they start to play
Time stands still while they sing their fill
Oh shout till the break of day.

A sweet little lady with a glass of stout
Sippin' it down 'til the foam runs out
She'll help her old man home again
With a walk in the Irish rain CHORUS
