Irish Girl - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

Yeah your Papa knows what your Mama will never understand

How far a young girl will go for the love of a London man

Hey little Irish girl, nothing can stop you now

Hey little Irish girl, nothing can stop you now

Can you feel the night flowing through your bones?

With your high-flying kite and your sticks and stones

Will you save me a place at the head of your table?

In your leather and lace and your burgundy sable

Hey little Irish girl, nothing can stop you now

Doing all Heaven will allow

You’ll make it through somehow

There’s sunlight behind the clouds

Yeah little Irish girl

Little Irish girl

When the servants mutiny and the crowned king cries

Will you come under scrutiny in their unforgiving eyes?

When there’s no keeper of the flame and the lights have gone out

Will you shoulder all the blame beyond a shadow of a doubt?

Hey little Irish girl, nothing can stop you now
