We’re not an “Irish band” but we do a few good’uns.\u00a0 This was a classic Tim-cover of the song by Steve Spurgin<\/a> and recorded by The Irish Descendants<\/a> found on their Best of The Irish Descendants, “So Far, So Good” (1999).\u00a0 Rick has since picked this one up for St-Pats month.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

When the sun goes down o’er Dublin town
\nThe colors last for hours, oh
\nThe lights come on, the night’s a song
\nAnd the streets all turn to gold<\/p>\n

A gentle mist all heaven kissed
\nLike teardrops off an angel’s wing
\nDon’t you know you’ll cleanse your soul
\nWith a walk in the Irish rain<\/p>\n

Chorus:<\/span>
\nOh, Katherine, take my hand<\/strong><\/em>
\nI’ve got three pounds and change<\/strong><\/em>
\nAnd I’ll sing you songs of love again<\/strong><\/em>
\nAnd when I get too drunk to sing<\/strong><\/em>
\nWe’ll walk in the Irish rain<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Forever more I’ve stepped ashore
\nMy sailing days are over, oh
\nTime and tide and by your side
\nTogether we’ll grow old<\/p>\n

I threw my sea bag in the bin
\nAnd brought these pretty flowers home
\nKiss me Kate, we’ll celebrate
\nBefore the bloom is gone<\/p>\n

Chorus<\/span><\/p>\n

A tinker and a tailor and a drunken old sailor
\nThey all get together and they start to play
\nTime stands still while they sing their fill
\nThey’ll shout ’til the break of day<\/p>\n

A sweet little lady with a glass of stout
\nSippin’ it down ’til the foam runs out
\nShe’ll help her old man home again
\nWith a walk in the Irish rain<\/p>\n

Chorus\u00a0 2x<\/span><\/p>\n
