[Verse 1]
You know, Jewish people have a
[C]beautiful sense of humor.
They really do.
Jewish people have a gorgeous sense of
humor.
And I have a very dear friend,
an elderly lady
who went to the doctors a few weeks
ago
and she walked into the
doctors.
She said, Doctor, I've got to tell you.
She said, the second time my husband and I make love,
he sweats how you wouldn't
believe.
He sweats.
He says, how old are you?
She said, I'm 69.
He says, 60?
How old's your husband?
She said, he's 71.
He said, and the second time you make love,
he sweats?
She said, yeah, in July he's okay,
but in December he sweats
like he wouldn't believe.
Another guy
went in to the doctor's.
The doctor said, look, he said, I've got good
news and bad news.
He said, well, give
me the bad news first.
He said, you're a poof.
He said, what's the good news?
He said, I love you.
But the Irish have a good sense of humor,
don't they? They really do.
I found out, you know,
that the grass is really greener in Ireland.
And that's
because they're all in England
walking on our bloody grass.
Talking about Ireland,
we would like to do a little Irish song right
now for you now
accompanied by the leprechaun
over there on the piano.
Thank you very much.
Oh, [F]I went last week to see
the tattooed lady
[C]And after the show
she begged of me to [F]stay
And she said if I would
[D]pay another dollar
[G]She'd let me [C]have a look at Galway [F]Bay[C]
[F]So I stayed behind and paid an[G]other dollar
[C]It was a real good buck's worth,
[F]I must say
For [C]she [F]had the rose of
[D]Tralee in Technicolor
[G]But I couldn't tak[C]e my
eyes off Gal[F]way Bay[G]
[C]Then she[F] let me have a look
at Lake Kil[C]larney
An[F]d Danny Boy was not [C]so far [F]away
And her mountains of mawn
[D]they really looked [G]a picture
But none of [Bb]them could
[C]touch her Galway [F]Bay
She had pictures of the sweepstakes
[G]and the [C]Derby
To kiss them all would take you [F]half a day
[Bb]So I[F] kissed her blarney st[D]one
and gently [G]pleaded
To have just [C]one last look
at Gal[F]way Bay
[D]So if [G]ever this young lady
comes round [Am]your town[D]
[Am]She's bound to visit [D]you,
[G]so don't delay
[D]And [G]no matter what the price
[E]is that she [A]asks you
It's [Am]worth it for [D]a look at Galway [G]Bay!
