When you gonna bring back Liam, bring back Liam.
It is just a matter of time de Deise
Is it just destiny, destiny?
Or is it just a game in my mind, de Deise?
Never gonna stop, give it up.
Such a dirty fouler. Always get it up for the touch
feck that bloody gowler. Up Up Up . Up Up Up Up The Deise...
Living in Port Lairge
(to the tune of "Living in America" by James Brown)
listen here:
living-in-port-lairge.mp3 (3MB approx)
Super drives - along the coast - gorgeous beaches everywhere -
On the county mountain road
just slide behind the wheel.
How does it feel when there's no destination that's too far
And somewhere on the way
you might find out who you are.
Living in PortLairge - eye to eye - station to station.
Living in PortLairge - hand in hand - across the Deise.
Living in PortLairge - got to have a celebration - rock my soul!
Some craic - Pigs Back - Kilmeaden railroad track.
All-night radio keep on runnin' through your rock'n' roll soul.
All-night diners keep you awake
On a black puddin and a blaa roll.
you might have to walk a fine line
you might take a hard line
But everybody's workin' overtime.
Living in PortLairge - eye to eye - station to station.
Living in PortLairge - hand in hand - across the Deise.
Living in PortLairge - got to have a celebration - rock my soul!
I live in PortLairge - I live in PortLairge - wait a minute -
you may not be lookin' for the promised land
But you might find it anyway.
Under one of those old familiar names like;
Dunmore East - Dunmore East
Waterford City - Waterford City
Tramore Beach - Tramore Beach
Portlaw Town - Portlaw Town
Dungarvan - Dungarvan
Lismore Town - Lismore Town
Ardmore - Ardmore
Clashmore and Tallow
Living in Port Lairge - hit me - Port Lairge - Port Lairge.
I live in Port Lairge - staying alive - we'll make the prime.
I live in Port Lairge - hey
I know what it means.
Living in Port Lairge - hit me - eye to eye - station to station.
Living in Port Lairge - so nice - would you better stop?
Living in Port Lairge - I feel good!

Tirconnell Avenue
A tribute to the daily march our very own WIT students partake in
from hillview through Tirconnell Avenue on their way to WIT
to the tune of Eddy Grant's Electric Avenue...
Listen:
http://www.upthedeise.org/upthedeise.com/waterford-mp3s/tirconnell-avenue.mp3
Up in Hillview there
was silence
And a long long walk to be done
No place to hang out our washing
So now I got some ire on me bum, oh no
CHORUS:
We gonna walk down through Tirconnell Avenue
and then we'll all get ire...
Oh gonna walk down through Tirconnell Avenue
me bum is on fire
studyin' hard like a soldier
can't afford wan thing only beer
Deep in my heart I'm a gowler
But now my friends all think I'm queer, oh no
CHORUS
Who is to blame in de country
For de ire I got on me bum
Covered all talced up and creamy,
I think I got some shyte on me thumb, oh no
Sittin' by the Clock on the Quay (pronounced Kay)
to the tune of "sittin' at the dock of the bay"
Listen to Sittin' by de Clock on de Kay here, as sung by Wellboy
Sittin' here readin the Sun,
I'll be sittin' when the evenin' come,
Watching the tall ships roll in,
And then I watch 'em roll away again, yeah
I'm sittin' by the clock on the kay
Watching some ride stroll away
Ooo, I'm just sittin' by the clock on the kay
Drinkin' wine
I left my home on Browne's Road,
Heading for the clock tower boy
'Cause I've got no-wan to work for,
And I'm looking for somewan to annoy!
So I'm just gonna sit by the clock on the kay
Watching some ride stroll away
Ooo, I'm sittin' by the clock on the kay
Drinkin' wine
Look like things are gonna change,
Everywan in the Deise wants the same,
We can do what ten other counties can do,
So I guess we'll just have to reign, yes
Sittin' here resting my arse,
Thinkin that road to Kilkenny's a farse,
It's two thousand metres to home,
So I think I'll call me ma' on the phone,
Now, I'm just gonna sit by the clock on the kay
Watching some ride stroll away
Oooo-wee, sittin' by the clock on the kay
Drinkin wine
Do Bhios-sa Lá I bPort Láirge
http://www.upthedeise.org//upthedeise.com/waterford-mp3s/odobhios.mp3
Do Bhios-sa Lá I bPort Láirge (One fine day in Waterford)
Ó do bhíos-sa lá 'bPort Láirge (One fine day in Waterford)
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
Bhí fíon is puins ar chlár ann (There was wine and punch on the table)
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
Bhí lán an tí de mhnáibh ann (There was a house with loads of women)
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
Agus mise ag ól a sláinte (And I was drinking to their health)
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
Agus d'éalaigh bean ón ráth liom (I eloped with a girl from rathcormack)
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
Agus triúr ó Thiobraid Árann (And three from Tipperary)
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
Ní raibh a muintir sásta (Their folks weren't happy)
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
Ní rabhadar ná leathshásta (They weren't even half happy)
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
Ó raghad don Charraig amárach (I will go to Carrick tomorrow)
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
Agus tabharfad cailín breá dom (And a girl will be with me)
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
Raghamid tríd an mBearnán (And through the gap we'll travel)
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
d'Cuir fios ar shagart láithreach (Get a priest quick)
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
Ó do bhíos-sa lá 'bPort Láirge (One fine day in Waterford)
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
Bhí fíon is puins ar chlár ann (There was wine and punch on the table)
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
Bhí lán an tí de mhnáibh ann (There was a house full of women)
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
Agus mise ag ól a sláinte ( And I was drinking to their health)
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom

You’re just too good to be true,
Can’t take the ball off of you,
You’ve got a wonderful touch,
You’re gonna win us so much,
And when we’re drunk in the bars,
We'll just thank God that you’re ours,
Your just too good to be true,
Can’t take the ball off of you...
Pardon the way that we stare,
There's no wan else to compare,
The sight of you at your peak,
Makes all the udders look weak,
But when you feel like a king,
We're gonna join in and sing,
You're just too good to be true
Can't take de ball off of you...
Ba da, Ba da, Ba da da da da,
Ba da, Ba da, Ba da da da da,
Ba da, Ba da, Ba da da da da,
Ba da, Ba da, Baaaaaaaaa...
We love you Ken,
Because you're blue and white,
We need you Ken,
To show our Deise might,
We love you Ken,
Trust in us when we say...
We need you Ken,
And we all hope and pray,
You're on the mend,
And you'll be back in May,
And yes we love you Ken,
yes we love you...
