I was raised G on Black and Tans, G
with Ronnie Drew,D and Van the ManG
GI go off to mass on Sunday
and then it's Dback to the pub on GMonday
I've Cgot a sister Meghan
with a DCeltic cross tattoo
I'll Ctell you a few stories
and every oGne of them is Dtrue
[[CHORUS]]
CMy mother's, brother's, sDister's, cousin's, auntie's
Uncle BCarney's, father's, brother had a cDounsin from KGillarney
GWell my great-grandda, and his mates
they tried to Dmake it to the SGtates
Ghis great uncle, he was a failure
he got deDported off to AustGralia
so they Cstowed upon a steamer
on the Dfamous White Star Line
I was Craised upon these stories
since i Gwas the age of Dnine
[[CHORUS]]
GWell my great uncle, he liked the races
he liked the Ddogs and steeplecGhases
Ghis wife, my dear old auntie
she kept a Dteashop way, way down in GBantry
but he fCixed a race in Donegal
and Dnow he's got to hide
with the Csticky buns and cakes and guns
and Gwhiskey on the Dside
