LUCK OF THE IRISH

** Image ID #1073725 Unavailable **

St. Patrick's Day is here at last,
I've waited all year through,
to decorate with shamrocks like
any Irish lass would surely do!

Everyone is a little bit Irish,
and we all love to celebrate
with music, fun, laughter and
corned beef cabbage on our plate.

The beauty of the Emerald Isle
is there for everyone to see,
from the lakes of dear Killarney
to the hills of Tipperary.

Thanks to dear St. Patrick,
not a snake will 'ere be seen.
He's banished them from Ireland,
and left it beautifully serene.

So I'll take my four-leaf clover
and I'll wear my forest green;
blarney will flow from my tongue
like none you've heard or seen.

The luck of the Irish will be mine
on this great St. Patrick's day,
my Irish eyes will be smiling
as good fortune comes my way!

The Leprechauns will share the gold
they have guarded all year long;
and the unicorns will romp with glee
when I burst into an Irish song!

HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY!
