The Orange And The Green lyrics

Send "The Orange And The Green" Ringtone to your Cell My father was an Ulster man, Proud Protestant was he. My mother was a Catholic girl, From County Cork was She. They were married in Two churches, Lived happily enough, Until the day that I was born And things Got rather tough. Oh, it is the biggest mix-up That you have ever seen. My father, he was Orange And me mother, She was green. Baptized by Father Riley, I was rushed away by car, To be made a little Orangeman, my father`s shining star. I was christened `David Anthony`, But still, inspite of that, To me father, I was William, While my mother called me Pat. Oh, it is the biggest mix-up... With Mother every Sunday, To Mass I`d proudly stroll. Then after that, the Orange lodge Would try to save my Soul. For both sides tried to claim me, But I was smart because I`d play the flute or play the harp, Depending where I was. Oh, it is the biggest mix-up... Now when I`d sing those rebel songs, Much to me mother`s joy, Me father would jump up and say, `Look here would you me boy. That`s quite enough of that lot`, He`d then toss me a coin And he`d have me sing the Orange Flute Or the Heroes of The Boyne Oh, it is the biggest mix-up... One day me Ma`s relations Came round to visit me. Just as my father`s kinfolk Were all sitting down to Tea. We tried to smooth things over, But they all began to fight. And me, being strictly neutral, I bashed everyone in sight. Oh, it is the biggest mix-up... My parents never could agree About my type of School. My learning was all done at home, That`s Why I`m such a fool. They`ve both passed on, God rest `em, But left me caught between That awful Color problem Of the Orange and the Green. Oh, it is the biggest mix-up... Oh, it is the biggest mix-up Send " The Orange And The Green" Ringtone to your Cell The Orange And The Green lyrics @ Burbler Lyrics | The Orange And The Green lyrics @ ELyrics | The Orange And The Green lyrics @ Kovideo | The Dubliners Lyrics and Video @ MusicBabylon | The Orange And The Green lyrics @ Songlyrics | The Orange And The Green lyrics @ ELyricsWorld
