Cheers To St. Patrick Poem by Richard Wlodarski

Cheers To St. Patrick

Rating: 5.0

Oh, Lordy Lordy Lordy on St. Patrick's Day
If you don't have all that very much to say
Take your friends out for some green beer
And all that ready made cheer

Oh, Lordy Lordy Lordy on St. Patrick's Day
Make it that special day to celebrate and play
Let live and relive memories of yesteryear
As you're drinking pint after pint of Guinness beer

Oh, Lordy Lordy Lordy on St. Patrick's Day
Time-out on this wonderful day for lots of play
With special friends you find so dear
Drinking more and more Guinness beer

Oh, Lordy Lordy Lordy on St. Patrick's Day
Listening to Danny Boy and Frank's My Way
Dancing the night away to Wasn't That A Party
And singing the rollicking tunes of Great Big Sea

Oh, Lordy Lordy Lordy on St. Patrick's Day
Finding them beautiful lassies with whom to sway
Ordering round after round of Jameson whiskey
Searching for those with whom you wanna be frisky

Oh, Lordy Lordy Lordy on St. Patrick's Day
Thinking about St. Patrick and what he might say:
Life is full of struggles and come what may
All work and no play will not make your day

Oh, Lordy Lordy Lordy on St. Patrick's Day
When The Saints Go Marching In what will they have to say:
New Orleans' Mardi Gras is always so much fun
And Brazil's Carnival...more hot fun in the sun

Oh, Lordy Lordy Lordy on St. Patrick's Day
Here's what us poets and musicians have to say:
We're here for a fun time in this very short life span
So kick off your boots and party hearty before you kick the can

Chorus:
Oh, Lordy Lordy Lordy on St. Patrick's Day
Drinking laughing and dancing the night away
Guzzling Guinness and downing Jameson whisky
Chasing beautiful lassies and being frisky

This is awesome, Richard. I'll be celebrating the holiday in future with a reading of this verse. Happy St. Paddy's!

And that'll be a double celebration: honouring the memory of St. Patrick and a tribute to my poem-song! Very grateful to you, M.J.!
