Me and Dirk's Trip to Ireland - Tim O'Brien

Me and Dirk's Trip to Ireland Lyrics

Me and Dirk took a little trip
Across the sea on a big air ship
Riley Baugus came along
Helped us play our banjo songs
Prettiest place that I've ever seen
Entirely covered in emerald greenChorus: Ate a lotta hog
Drank a lotta grog
Stepped in a bog
Came back in a fogPlace over there called Crosses of Annagh
West Clare's answer to the Copa Caabana
Mairtin and Danny, Siobhan and Ciaran
Reelin in the front room, Dermy was steerin
Three in the mornin, our welcome was shot
We moved the session to the parkin lotHalf an hour later, nature was callin
Got to the point where there's no more stallin
Dirk climbed up on a three foot wall
We all cried No! as he started to fall
Up to his thighs in a soggy ooze

Peein as the water filled up his shoes
