Just finished learning a song called " Dublin in My Tears". Great song and a line in it states the following. "We'll drink one toast before I cross the foam".
Now I was wondering. Does this line mean before I cross the ocean? Or is there an Irish tradition that before one starts to drink that they actually make a cross on the head of the beer? I kink of like this last idea and it would seem to fit with the sentimental Irish.
