Shamrock City Irish Descendants

There's a band tonight down in Shamrock City
Where the girls of Limerick are much too pretty;
Joe Cooley's Reel on accordion
Like the blues with the touch of O'Carolan

Livin' on the edge
Livin' on the edge
On the edge of the Shamrock City

There's a band tonight down in Shamrock City
On the banks of the Hudson, the Thames, and the Liffey;
Some are sober wearing Pioneer pins
Some drink like fish you can see their fins

Livin' on the edge
Livin' on the edge
On the edge of the Shamrock City

[Interlude]

There's a band tonight down in Shamrock City
Young man, this is Mikey -- Hey! Have you seen Kitty?
My love she sailed across the foam
I ain't had no lover since she's been gone

Livin' on the edge
Livin' on the edge
