An old man walks the cobbled streets
Of a city he helped create
When he had walked on younger feet
Back so proud and straight
The bog’s of Ireland he left behind
To search for a better life
In a foreign city’s numbing grind
With mind erasing strife

Loneliness ate his homesick heart

 We,d play games with your toys strewn all across the floor 

Our Love was...

There was an old leprechaun named Paddy,
Who carried his gold in a hand caddy.
There was just not a lot,
To store inside a pot.
That rainbow-less leprechaun named Paddy!...

Paddy’s drinking with his buddy Shaun
In fancy dress as a leprechaun
To be part of the scene
They wear emerald green
and get bladdered before break of dawn!

Old Paddy supped ten pints of brown ale
And then drunk as a skunk, he turns pale
He stumbles to the right
And gets...
