Irish Soil from Lisa Love by Lisa Love

Lyrics

Come dance with me on Irish soil
It’s more fun together
Kick off your brógs, loosen up
And let the peat get under

Harvest time has arrived, Lúnasa’s in town
Cross your hands over mine and spin me round and round

The moon is gazing down on us
The banging drum is loud
Leading us to mountain top
Bonfire on higher ground

Come dance with me on Irish soil
It’s more fun together
Kick off your brógs, loosen up
And let the peat get under

We will celebrate this feast
To our God of light
May he bless all of our land
And shine on us tonight

Across the sea at Loch Maree
They’re having a wee dram
Music, games and laughter heard from the Isle of Man

Come dance with me on Irish soil
It’s more fun together
Kick off your brógs, loosen up
And let the peat get under

Will you stay and comfort me
When the storm arrives
We can have a family
I could be your wife

Our children can work the land
Until the well runs dry
Irish Soil is where I live
And where I want to die
