I traced the thread back but didn't find the lyrics so here is as near as I can get:-
The Orange and The Green

Oh me father was an Ulsterman
Called Protestant was he
Me mother was a Catholic girl
from County Cork came she.
They were married in two churches
Lived happily enough
Until the day that I was born
Then things got rather rough.

Chorus
For it was the greatest mix-up
That you have ever seen
Me father he was orange and
me mother she was green

Baptised be father Rielly
Then rushed away be car
To be made a little Orangeman
Me father's shining star.
I was Christened David Anthony
But yet in spite of that
To me father I was William
To me mother I was Pat
Oh to church then every Sunday
With Mother I'd proudly stroll
Then later on the Orange lodge
would try to save me soul.
For both sides tried to claim me
But I was smart because
I'd play me flute or I'd play me harp
Depending where I was.
Chorus

Sometimes I'd sing those rebel songs
much to me mother's joy
Me father would lep up and shout
Look here William me boy
Sure you've sung enough of that lot
He then tossed me a coin
To sing about the orange flute
Or (??? them heroes) of the Boyne
One day me mum's relations
They came to visit me
Be chance me father's kinfolk
Were just sitting down to tea.
Well we tried to smooth things over
But they all began to fight
And being strictly neutral
I bashed everyone in sight
Chorus

Well me parents never could agree
about me kind of school
Me learnin' was all done at home
No wonder I'm a fool.
Well they both passed on
what blessed them
But I am torn between
That awful colour from the mob
The orange and the green

For it was the greatest mix-up
That you have ever seen
Me father he was orange and
me mother she was green

Oh the orange and the green
Oh the orange and the green
Me father he was orange and
me mother she was green

From the singing of the Grehan Sisters ^^
As Alison says the tune is easily available.
