Lyrics

Translation
Bilingual
Loaded the car with the boys
Hit the city for the night
But everything changed that weekend
The second that I saw you walk into Riordan's
I saw you on your own
Said, "Well, how's it goin'"
I was talking 'bout tractors and calves
I was fair nervous but I made you laugh
Jays the price of a pint
These cocktails taste like shite
But, you were fun and pretty
You're accent is pure Cork City
You turned to me with a smile
Said, "you're alright bouy?"
Take a bow
All the lights of Cork City
Shine brighter now
From Shandon out to Ringaskiddy
I can't believe I'm falling for someone who drinks Tanora
But when you smile
You stop the lights
Then we used to meet
By the courthouse on Washington Street
Walked to Pรกirc Uรญ Chaoimh
And get a Crio out of KCs
She took me for a jar in the Brรณg
The Wash, Clancy's and The Old Oak
And I can hear the echo
And the young one busking fields of gold
Take a bow
All the lights of Cork City
Shine brighter now
From Shandon out to Ringaskiddy
I can't believe I'm falling for someone who drinks Tanora
But when you smile
You stop the lights
ย
Will you stay, will you stay, will you stay
Will you leave, will you leave, will you leave
Walk one last time
Hand in hand down Patrick Street
Back home they won't believe us
This girl has got me drinking Beamish
Way in the country
She will probably leave me for Roy Keane
Take a bow
All the lights of Cork City
Shine brighter now
From Shandon out to Ringaskiddy
I can't believe I'm falling for someone who drinks Tanora
But when you smile
You stop the lights
