Irish Descendants - Shamrock City lyrics

There's a band tonight down in Shamrock City Where the girls of Limerick are much too pretty; Joe Cooley's Reel on accordion Like the blues with the touch of O'Carolan Livin' on the edge Livin' on the edge On the edge of the Shamrock City There's a band tonight down in Shamrock City On the banks of the Hudson, the Thames, and the Liffey; Some are sober wearing Pioneer pins Some drink like fish you can see their fins Livin' on the edge Livin' on the edge On the edge of the Shamrock City [Interlude] There's a band tonight down in Shamrock City Young man, this is Mikey -- Hey! Have you seen Kitty? My love she sailed across the foam I ain't had no lover since she's been gone Livin' on the edge Livin' on the edge On the edge of the Shamrock City Livin' on the edge Livin' on the edge On the edge of the Shamrock City There's a band tonight down in Shamrock City They all play for nothing so put something in the kitty; I threw up with a wolfhound's bark Threw it a bone, it took me to heart Livin' on the edge Livin' on the edge On the edge of the Shamrock City Livin' on the edge Livin' on the edge On the edge of the Shamrock City Livin' on the edge Livin' on the edge On the edge of the Shamrock City There's a band tonight down in Shamrock City
