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!
