Seaweed from the yellow cliff, Irish seaweed
Seaweed from the ocean, the best in all of IrelandThere is a yellow gold head on the Gaelic seaweed
There are two blunt ears on the stately seaweed
The Irish seaweed has beautiful black shoes
The stately seaweed has a beret and trousers[Chorus 2x]"What are you doing here?" says the Irish seaweed
"At courting with your daughter," says the stately seaweedI would go to Niir with the Irish seaweed
"I would buy expensive shoes," said the Irish seaweed[Chorus]I spent time telling her the story that I would buy a comb for her
The story she told back to me, that she is well-groomed"Oh where are you taking my daughter?" says the Irish seaweed
"Well, I'd take her with me," says the stately seaweedSeaweed from the yellow cliff, Irish seaweed[Chorus]Seaweed from the yellow cliff, Irish seaweed
Seaweed from the ocean, the best, the best
Seaweed from the yellow cliff, Irish seaweed
Seaweed from the ocean, the best, the best
The best in all of Ireland
