The woman of Ireland talks to me
She sings to me, she talks to me
The woman of Ireland talks to me
At a party in Fitzroy
She tells me of her countrymen
Christy Moore and Van the Man
Bobby Geldof, all of them
At a party in Fitzroy
Tooralooralooralay
I am all ears
Tooralooralooralay
I want her near
Tooralooralooralay
I want to hear
What she has to say to me
The woman of Ireland, proud and strong
She talks to me but not for long
The woman of Ireland, proud and strong
At a party in Fitzroy
'Cos every time I say a word
It is as if she hasn't heard
Or could it be my speech is blurred
At a party in Fitzroy
