Irish Goodbye

Lyrics

[Verse 1] My welcome′s been worn like a jacket that's torn I believe I should be moving on The right time is here and I′m in the clear Though the party is still going strong I hope they keep laughing, dancing, and clapping To the same old overplayed song Before the last toast I'll be good as a ghost They can raise em up to someone who's gone [Chorus] It′s time for an Irish goodbye The reason would sound like a lie They don′t want to hear it Caught up in the spirit I'll wave to a few on the fly And leave with an Irish goodbye [Verse 2] I′ve been here before with one eye on the door Cause I know how the story will end The time that I'm biding with the joints that I′m lighting Like an old flame that asks how you been Before the tears start to falling The drunk curtain calling a scene down to it's close I′m dodging a bullet, the rip cord I'll pull it Cause I'm high and I want to go home [Chorus] So here comes an Irish goodbye The reason would sound like a lie They don′t want to hear it Caught up in the spirit I′ll wave to a few on the fly And leave with an Irish goodbye [Chorus] So here comes an Irish goodbye The reasons would sound like a lie There's no point in staying I can′t hear what they're saying And no one will even ask why I left with an Irish goodbye
