Wrote this one for my pal Kathryn, who spent the better part of a month here in the states trying to teach us that Northern Ireland is NOT Ireland. Just a fun little romp where some Northern Irish sass blends right into the American melting pot. Enjoy!

Lyrics

Northern Irish Sunshine © 2010 Jason Craig – All Rights Reserved Well she gets on a plane in Belfast Steps off the jetway in the USA She stretches her legs and collects her bags And then she heads out on her way You see she’s come here to learn all that she can ‘Bout the people of the Red White and Blue But we’ll soon find out she’s the kind of girl Who’ll teach us all a little something too She’s a U2 girl stuck in a Springsteen world But still she’s taking it all in stride She’s checking out America’s twists and turns And she’s taking us along for the ride You know we’ll hate to see that girl go home ‘cause you know we’ve had a ball She’s brought some Northern Irish sunshine to us all Well she wakes up everyday at 5:45 And drags her butt off to our workout class She can still find a way to make us all smile Although her legs feel like they’re made of glass Later on that night sitting out by the pool She’ll burst right out in song She’s singing Brown Eyed Girl in a made-up key But we can’t help but sing along She’s a U2 girl stuck in a Springsteen world But still she’s taking it all in stride She’s checking out America’s twists and turns And she’s taking us along for the ride You know we’ll hate to see that girl go home ‘cause you know we’ve had a ball She’s brought some Northern Irish sunshine to us all She’s gonna take this chance gonna do her best To make the most of her four weeks here She’ll go home soon enough but before she does She’s gonna live love laugh and maybe drink a couple beers She’s Van Morrison’s girl stuck in a Springsteen world But still she’s taking it all in stride She’s straightening out America’s twists and turns And she’s taking us along for the ride You know we’ll hate to see that girl go home ‘cause you know we’ve had a ball She’s brought some Northern Irish sunshine to us all She’s brought a little Northern Irish sunshine to us all
