Lyrics
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
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
Hey little Irish girl, nothing can stop you now
Hey little Irish girl, nothing can stop you now
