I got the hang of Irish Music 
When I saw the Gaelic shore 
All my continental fears 
Now seem such a bore 
The ferry boat took me to Dublin 
And the Shannon to the west 
To all the people and the hills 
My soul likes the best 

Now I am a Shamrock busker 
All the songs are for the free 
All the tunes and Irish airs 
Can't stand slavery 
We square the circle, start again 
We try and try, if all's in vain 
We're looking for a brand new morning 
Break the chain 

Now I am a rambling rover 
Roving over hilly land 
Lookin' for the final answer 
Written in sand 
I also jump in at the deep end 
Have a stout in Gallway town 
Also like the city lights 
They can't drag me down 

Didn't you know 
The Shamrock busker's songs 
To Ireland he belongs 
With all his wild dreams 

Whenever we will play an Irish tune 
The Shamrock revives 
Whenever we can see a waxing moon 
Tim Finnegan will rise
