Heres what I have so far and here is a link to the youtube video True Irishman
there are some words I just can't make out. Thanks

I am a true Irishman but there I was not born
I'm living here in places far across the native home
I'd like to sit and have a drink and tell you of me day
I am what I am and I do not give a damn.

I went to see me girl friend
I go away and ye traitor
You scorn me name but   shame on your back
Get on your bike and hit the road I won't be taking you back

Chorus

I went
The music soul and hard to play
In between the fiddle and flute a smile upon me face
But the emptiness inside me the music

Thanks for the link, enjoyed the song.
Is that the correct title, who sings it on this Youtube clip and has it been recorded on CD?
Hope someone can help with the answers!

Anne

This should be a slight improvement:


TRUE IRISHMAN
Edward Connors, Saoirse Irish Band

CHORUS: I am a true Irishman but there I was not born.
I'm living here in places far across the native foam.
I'd like to sit and have a drink and tell you of my day.
I am what I am and I do not give a damn.

1. I went to see ....
Ah, go away, ye traitor, for you'll tell to me no lies.
You scorn me name but ..., Seamus, your bed on your back
Get on your bike and hit the road. I won't be taking you back.

2. I went inside a session from night to early morn.
The music got inside my heart. My soul it had to play,
In between the fiddle and flute with a smile upon me face,
But the emptiness inside me heart the music did replace.

3. Well, Irish travel far away, they wander off ...
But an Irishman, it's in his heart and there will always stay
I bring the spirit with me and wander far away
And I'll bring it back again and then I'm going to stay.

CHOURS
   I am a true irish man but there i was not born
   Im living here in places far across the native foam
   I'd like to sit and have a drink and tell you of me day
   I am what I am and I do not give a damn

1>
      I went to see me girl friend good morning to her say's I
      Ah go away ya traitor for you'll tell to me no lies
      you scorned my name with nothing but shame with your bed on your back
      get on your bike and hit the road I won't be taking ya back

2>
      I went inside a session from night to early morn.
      The music got inside my heart. My soul it had to play,
      In between the fiddle and flute with a smile upon me face,
      and the emptiness inside me heart the music did replace.

3>
    Well, I may travel far and wide and wander off astray
    But an Irishman, it's in his heart and there will always stay
    I'll bring the spirit with me and wander far away
    And I'll bring it back again then i might just stay.
