Irish Heart Songtext
At only the age seven
With a fiddle in his hand
My great grandfather, Sean
Had to leave his homeland
He swore that he'd return
No matter the cost
But the times stayed rough
And his dreams got lost

At fourteen he got ill
And could no longer walk
The doctors tried to help
All they did was just talk
But something deep inside him
Just wouldn't give up
Until he became a tap dancer

Can you feel my Irish heart
Can you feel my Irish heart
Beatin', beatin'
Can you feel my Irish heart
Can you feel my Irish heart
Beatin', beatin'

So like my late father
And his fathers before
I'm proud to say I'm Irish
Down to the core
And even though I've lived
Mostly astray
The song, the dance, the humor
It just won't go away

And if you'd say I'm ugly,
Well, you would be right
But you would want me with you
If you got in a fight
I've finally returned
For myself and little Sean
To the country with the biggest heart

Can you feel my Irish heart
Can you feel my Irish heart
Beatin', beatin'
Can you feel my Irish heart
Can you feel my Irish heart
Beatin', beatin'

Can you feel my Irish heart
Can you feel my Irish heart
Beatin'

Can you feel my Irish heart
Can you feel my Irish heart
Beatin', beatin'
Can you feel my Irish heart
Can you feel my Irish heart
Beatin', beatin'

(Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
(Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Can you feel
(Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Can you feel my heart beating?
Can you feel
(Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Can you feel my heart beating?
Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
