Green With Envy
I met her at a bar and she was pretty
Wishin' on a star in Galway city
At least I'm in the game a lass, a love, a laddie
She's callin' out a name, only my name isn't Paddy
I'm not about to get no shamrock or shillelagh
I still like a Guinness and a shot of Bailey's
Something's really troublin', I guess I never knew her
She wants to be in Dublin, but it's Dalton Road and Bloor
She broke my heart and oh my head
Won't somebody mend me
I'm all blue and I'm seeing red, cause my baby
She's green with envy
The wine didn't work or suit her panics
She's dreamin' over Cork but drinkin' in the Annex
I gotta make a choice so I bought her lots of presents
She was takin' in The Peasants
That's the final straw, this camel's back is broken
I'm serious this time, but I'm probably only joking
I know where you've been, go have the Irish fellas
Be weary of the green, and have the Irish fellas
