Patrick's day can be just that little bit too oirish but what the heck I love this country so it's a day for cherishing it and all my ties with it and tons of memories.
This song is really all about the one delicious fabulous rainy August day we were hitchhiking to Roonagh Quay to catch the ferry to Clare Island, home of the magnificent pirate queen Grace O 'Malley.




Oh, the water
Hope it don’t rain all day

And it stoned me to my soul
Stoned me just like jelly roll
And it stoned me
And it stoned me to my soul
Stoned me just like goin’ home
And it stoned me

Then the rain let up and the sun came up
And we were gettin’ dry
Almost let a pick-up truck nearly pass us by
So we jumped right in and the driver grinned
And he dropped us up the road
