Nobody loves like an Irishman
A turbaned Turk who scorns the world
Keep a hundred wives under lock and key
For nobody else but himself to see
And though they may think
He'll never ever look like an Irishman
He'll never have a love like an Irishman.
Dum -dum -a -dum -a -dum -a -dum
The game on shore, a slave no more,
The solemn don and the soft seigneur,
The Dutchman here so full of pride,
The Russian, Prussian, Swede beside.
They all may do whatever they can,
They'll never have a love
They all may do whatever they can
They'll never, ever love like an Irishman
Dum -dum -dum -dum -dum -dum
And think they please in a capital style
Yet let them ask as they cross the street
Of any young girl that they happen to meet
And I know she'll say from
Nobody loves like an Irishman
Nobody loves like an Irishman
Dum -dum -a -dum -a -dum -a -dum
Dum -dum -a -dum -a -dum -a -dum
Nobody loves like an Irishman
The rest of my life with you I'd share
I love your face, your hair, your smile
As sure as I come from the Emerald Isle
It must be clear to your lovely eye
Nobody can love you better than I
It must be clear to your lovely eye
Nobody can love you better than I
Dum -dum -a -da -ba -da -ba -dum
Nobody loves like an Irishman
Dum -dum -a -da -ba -da -ba -dum
Nobody loves like an Irishman
Dum -dum -a -da -ba -da -ba -dum
Nobody loves like an Irishman
Dumb, dumb -a -dumb -a -dumb -a -dumb
Nobody loves like I love you
