Danny Man Lyrics

danny danny danny danny danny danny
danny boy!
danny danny danny danny danny danny
danny boy!
danny danny danny danny danny danny
danny boy!
danny danny danny danny danny danny
danny boy!

there's a story back in ireland
the country that i'm from
(from!)
about a certain danny boy
i think the story's wrong
(wrong!)
he's been around for years and years
i think you'll understand
danny boy by now
he should be danny man...

danny danny danny danny danny danny
danny boy!
danny danny danny danny danny danny
danny boy!

you can hear it in an irish bar
sung by drunken men
(men!)
but the only words that i can hear
are something "glen to glen"
(glen!)
his middle name is danny
his first name is o
his surname is boy
the song we all know...

oh danny boy
they'll always sing about you
all round the world
in every irish bar
'tis you 'tis you
that keeps my heart in ireland
oh danny boy oh danny boy
I love you so

ireland's biggest export
is their people don't you know
(know!)
and the more irish they become
the further that the go
(go!)
st. patrick's day parade
is bigger in new york
'cause everybody's irish
'cause their mother comes from cork

the start the day by marchin'
but they end up in a bar
(bar!)
as everybody knows
the irish love a jar
(jar!)
the crack is mighty
and the room is filled with joy
but there's never any value
when they start singin' danny boy...

oh danny boy
they'll always sing about you
all round the world
in every irish bar
'tis you 'tis you
that keeps my heart in ireland
oh danny boy oh danny boy
I love you so

a million years from now
we'll be livin' out in space
(space)
you'll probably meet a martian
who doesn't have a face
(face)
you'll tell him you're from ireland
and he'll begin to talk
he goes "i know it well, sure"
"me mother comes from cork"

you'll get into a rocket
driven by mr spock
(spock!)
he'll take you to a bar
where the guiness hits the spot
(spot!)
but there's never any value
there's never any joy
if you've ever heard a martian
singing danny boy

in space, no-one can hear you scream...

oh danny boy
they'll always sing about you
all round the world
in every irish bar
'tis you 'tis you
that keeps my heart in ireland
oh danny boy oh danny boy
I love you so

danny danny danny danny danny danny
danny boy!
danny danny danny danny danny danny
danny boy!
