Lyr Req: Irish song 'some say the devil is de

From: Loretta Grace

hey there -- Does anyone know the words to a fun little Irish song that goes (well, the chorus does)

Some say the devil is dead, devil is dead, devil is dead Some say the devil is dead and buried in Kilarney. I say he rose again, I say he rose again, I say he rose again and joined the British Army.

the words are kind of risque (what I know of them, anyway, which is almost nil). it's a great song... thanks a lot Loretta

thanks a lot, I really appreciate it.

although one of the lines I know -- that wasn't in this discussion -- is

She goes to bed at six o'clock at six o'clock at six o'clock she goes to bed at six o'clock it makes her rather randy.

I suppose to get the full effect, it has to be said by a an attractive irish guy as he's raising his eyebrows at you :)
