Happy St Paddy's Day



The Wearin' O' the Green
Today is the day fer the wearin' o' the green.
Today is the day when the little people are seen.
Today is St. Patrick's Day, so if ye'r Irish me lad,
Join the celebratin' fer the grandest time ta' be had.
Ya' put yer hand up in the air, the other hand on your hip.
Ya' tap yer toe, ya' tap yer heel,
ya' bounce yer knee a wee bit.
Ya' prance 'n dance around the room,
n' circle one two three.
The saints be praised, I must admit, ya' all look Irish ta' me.
