CHORUS:
Oh once again it's time for
The Wearin' o' the Green
Every year we do it here
On March the 17
When folk the whole world o'er
Are Irish for a day
To honor old St. Paddy
Who drove the snakes away

Today we're at O'Leary's
Each with our sweet colleen
We're be toastin' old St. Paddy
With beer that's foamin' green
While others are paradin'
Outside in the chill
We'll be here at O'Leary's
Until we've drunk our fill

There's one thing ye can count on
Folk from the Emerald Isle
Are truly fond o' Guiness
And we have been for a while
There is yet another thing
We truly do adore
That portrait of St. Paddy
Mike keeps above the bar

REPEAT CHORUS

Now Paddy is me favorite saint
Of ancient Irish stock
I'll take him o'er St. Jarlath
Or old St. Toirdealbach
Come all me buckin' boyos
And raise yer glasses high
To the saint who don't require ye
To keep yer whistle dry

REPEAT CHORUS
