| Orthodox Celts - Stand Up To Your Devil Lyrics: | ||
I grew up in Ireland in dear old Dublin town Brought up by a people who'd let nothin' get 'em down I was thought while still a child to stand up for me rights Prepare to face the devil that would plague me in my life I served a long apprenticeship at very honest trade And met so many devils of whom I felt afraid But father's words came back to me when I wanted to back down I looked each divil in the eye and boldly stood me ground Chorus : Stand up to your devils or they'll walk over you Remember, son, the devils come in many shapes and hues There's devil that is handsome, the devil that is mean Some of them look scruffy and some look far too clean http://www.free-lyrics.org I tried me hand at courtin' an' women found me sweet Until I met McKenna who knocked me off me feet Oh, Lord, was she a lover or a temper of a shrew She not just knocked off me feet, she knocked me black and blue Sure she was a devil dressed up in Angel's guise When you'd least expect a clout she'd hit you 'tween the eyes She started talkin' marriage each time she looked at me I felt 'twas time I got to know the divils of the sea I waved my hand and said goodbye as ship pulled from the quay Adventure layed before me and so did seven seas I travelled many ocean miles and found from east to west The devils you are safest with are those that you know best View more Orthodox Celts Song Lyrics: Orthodox Celts - Drinking Song Lyrics Orthodox Celts - Rocky Road To Dublin/Down The River Lyrics Orthodox Celts - Far Away Lyrics Orthodox Celts - Green Roses Lyrics Orthodox Celts - The Beggarman Lyrics Orthodox Celts - Bean Na Shi Lyrics Orthodox Celts - The Wearing Of The Green Lyrics Orthodox Celts - Stand Up To Your Devil Lyrics Orthodox Celts - Loch Lomond Lyrics Orthodox Celts - Sindidun Lyrics |
