[Verse]
Come for a trip on Uncle Nobby's steamboat,
Where you can hide your worries on a high float,
And we'll take a trip to leprechauns and shamrocks,
And hide our minds and troubles for a while.
[Chorus]
And we're going where the grass is growing green,
To a mystic land that no one else has seen,
Where oblivion takes a mind's reality,
And reality fades into a memory.
[Verse]
Captain Bluebeard gives a smile at the gangway side to meet you,
The first mate by his side, with a work card if he needs you,
They'll take you to your berth, your cabin's cool and cosy,
Full steam ahead, we're ready for to go.
[Chorus]
And we're going where the grass is growing green,
To a mystic land that no one else has seen,
Where oblivion takes a mind's reality,
And reality fades into a memory.
[Verse]
Bring on the dancing girls, the show is now in motion,
The choo-choo train has gone, it's halfway through the mountains,
The fairies and the witch, the banshees drinking brandy,
Uncle Nobby, at last, he's in command.
[Chorus]
And we're going where the grass is growing green,
To a mystic land that no one else has seen,
Where oblivion takes a mind's reality,
And reality fades into a memory.
[Verse]
Now, we're off to Tir na nÓg, the god of love is Grainne,
Cú Chulainn can't get in, his coat he has no Fáinne,
The leprechauns go by in a twinkling mystic vision,
The shamrock lies a-mourning in the grave.
[Chorus]
And we're going where the grass is growing green,
To a mystic land that no one else has seen,
Where oblivion takes a mind's reality,
And reality fades into a memory.
[Chorus]
And we're going where the grass is growing green,
To a mystic land that no one else has seen,
Where oblivion takes a mind's reality,
And reality fades into a memory.
