"I met with Napper Tandy and he took me by the hand. And he said "how's dear old Ireland and how does she stand? "She's the most distressful country, that ever yet was seen; they're hangin' men and women there for Wearin' o' the Green."
O Paddy dear, and did you hear the news that's goin' 'round? The shamrock is forbid by law to grow on Irish ground. St. Paddy's Day no more we'll keep; his color can't be seen, for there's a cruel law against the Wearin' o' the Green.
O I've heard the whisperin' of that land beyond the sea, where the rich and poor stand equal in the light of freedom's day, where the cruel cross of England will never more be seen, and where, Please God, we'll live and die still Wearin' o' the Green."

Amen!

As an American with Irish/Dutch Roots I'll always be proud of that little folk song!

And while I'm at it, anyone like to help me find where the Blarney Roses grow?
