Thread Name: Irish songs which aren't Irish
Subject: RE: Irish songs which aren't Irish
G'day McGrath,

Of course, any song is claimed as clearly Irish if it mentions:

Whisk(e)y,
drinking,
Fighting,
Singing,
Misspent youth (or adulthood),
Unrequited love,
Misbehaving,
Poverty - and if it
contains ... or rhymes with, Green!

Regards(les)s,

Bob
