There's a lilt in the air and a charm on the breeze
And a pub with some beer saying please take your ease
Come settle yourself, come be of good cheer
You for sure will be welcome in here
There's a bodhrum and a fiddle and a smile on the face
On all of the folk in this small Irish place
No matter your nation your faith or your goal
Tonight You've got Irish blood in your soul, blood in your soul, blood in your soul
You've got Irish blood in your soul
You've got Irish blood in your soul
It's a love of the living, and the sharing of love
And a faith we'll be cared for by the Big Man above
It's taking the time to give time to a friend
Knowing that true friendship never can end
It's knowing the truth and be willing to see, that a
Stranger is a new friend just waiting to be
It's brighter than diamonds 'n more precious than gold
It's the Irish blood in your soul, blood in your soul, blood in your soul
You've got Irish blood in your soul
You've got Irish blood in your soul
There's a truth and a wisdom in what the ould feller said
We're a short time happy, and a long time dead
And friendship survives beyond space, death and time
And up those dark mountains together we'll climb
For wherever we travel across planet earth, we're
Forever attached to the land of our birth
This heartstrong belonging beyond all control
It's the Irish blood in your soul, blood in your soul, blood in your soul, blood in your soul
When the songs of the Home stir a yearn to return
To the Land of our forbears, where the home fires still burn
When the pipes and the drum stir the bones of your soul
That's the Irish blood in your soul
And the prophets are silent on what will unfold
And the omens obscure what they all once foretold
This one truth forever we all can uphold
You've got Irish blood in your soul, blood in your soul, blood in your soul
You've got Irish blood in your soul
You've got Irish blood in your soul
END
extra lyric not used in the jam
So let's drink to our glory, and the ties of the past
And pray that our kinship forever will last
May our health and our wealth increase one hundred fold
'N Bless the Irish blood in our souls
You've got Irish blood in your soul
You've got Irish blood in your soul
May our songs and our stories forever be told
You've got Irish blood in your soul
May our songs and our stories forever be told
You've got Irish blood in your soul
