The Irish Navy

     G                          D
The Clíona, the Meabh and the Mucha
     G                  C
The pride of the Irish navy
     G                          
When the Captain he blows on his 
     D
whistle
All the sailors go home for their 
 G
tea

     G                         D
While the army is off in the Kongo
     G                      C
In Cyprus or some foreign parts
     G                        D

                        G
Deploying its nautical acts
     G                      D
One day from the Russian invader
     G                  C
Defending our very odd fish
     G                          D
We found it was just the red herring
From the signals we got from the 
 G
cis'

Chorus

Each year they go on manoeuvres
To prepare for defence they are keen
Sometimes it's the Lakes of 
Killarney
More often the pond in the Green
The canal it could be of assistance
In defending our own holy ground
But due to proposed legislation
We'll have to sail all the way round

Chorus

We are a seafaring nation
Defence of our land is a right
We'd fight like the devil all 
morning
Provided we're home by the night
