Grumpy Old Men of Ottawa - Going Back To Ireland

WellI'm going back to Ireland it's a place I've never been
I'm going back to Ireland tis the land of my unknown kin
Way way back in Ireland where me father he was born
I'm going back to Ireland to find out me o moor
Well me father was a music man and me I took the same
All my life this music has been running rounding thru my brain
Every time I hear those songs I feel that Celtic call
Well I got to keep on singing and never for to fall
Well me father came across the pond a long long time ago
He courted to me mother and that's where I was born
He left before I knew him , never to return
Oh I got to get to Ireland and about him try to learn
Well I'm going back to Ireland it's a place I've never been
I'm going back to Ireland tis the land of my unknown kin
Way way back in Ireland where me father he was born
I'm going back to Ireland to find out me o moor
Well I never knew a lot about where I really did come from
I had a love for beer and whiskey and singing having fun
It must have been those Irish roots that kept me on the run
Well I got to go to Ireland and were going have some fun
Well I'm going back to Ireland it's a place I've never been
I'm going back to Ireland tis the land of my unknown kin
Way way back in Ireland where me father he was born
I'm going back to Ireland to find out me o moor
Well I'm going back to Ireland
Going back to Ireland
Going back to Ireland for sure
