My father, he was Orange and me mother, she was green. My father was an Ulster man, proud Protestant was he. My mother was a Catholic girl. From county Cork was she. They were married in two churches, lived happily enough, Until the day that I was born. Then, things got rather tough. Oh, it is the biggest mix-up that you have ever seen. My father, he was Orange and me mother, she was green. Baptized by Father Reilly, I was rushed away by car, To be made a little Orangeman, my father's shining star. I was christened "David Anthony," but still, inspite of that, To my father, I was William, while my mother called me Pat. Oh, it is the biggest mix-up that you have ever seen. My father, he was Orange and me mother, she was green. With Mother every Sunday, to Mass I'd proudly stroll. Then after that, the Orange lodge would try to save my soul. For both sides tried to claim me, but i was smart because I'd play the flute or play the harp, depending where I was. Oh, it is the biggest mix-up that you have ever seen. My father, he was Orange and me mother, she was green. One day my Ma's relations came round to visit me. Just as my father's kinfolk were all sitting down to tea. We tried to smooth things over, but they all began to fight. And me, being strictly neutral, I bashed everyone in sight. Oh, it is the biggest mix-up that you have ever seen. My father, he was Orange and me mother, she was green. My parents never could agree about my type of school. My learning was all done at home, that's why I'm such a fool. They've both passed on, God rest 'em, but left me caught between That awful color problem of the Orange and the Green. Oh, it is the biggest mix-up that you have ever seen. My father, he was Orange and me mother, she was green Related Lyrics Random lyrics: Beauty and Family, Beneath The Balcony, Bird Stealing Bread, Cinder And Smoke, Each Coming Night, Fever Dream, Free Until They Cut Me Down, Love And Some Verses, Naked As We Came, On Your Wings, Passing Afternoon, Radio War, Sodom, South Georgia, Such Great Heights, Sunset Soon Forgotten, Teeth in the Grass, The Trapeze Swinger, Upward Over The Mountain, Are You Happy, Belda-Beast, Filled With Fear, Flower and Beads, Flower Beads, Flowers and Beads, Get Out Of My Life, Woman, Her Favorite Style, In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida, In The Crowds, In The Time Of Our Lives, In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida, It Must Be Love, Lonely Boy, Most Anything You Want, My Mirage, Possession, Real Fright, So-Lo, Soldier In Our Town, Soul Experience, Stamped Ideas, Termination, The Time of Our Lives, Unconscious Power, Angel Of Light, Battle Of Freedom, Behind The Mirror, Forever Evil, Glory To The King, Here And Alive, Into The Abyss, Other Irish Rovers song Lyrics Black Velvet Band Lyrics Bodenstown Churchyard Lyrics Bridget Flynn Lyrics Drunken Sailor Lyrics Fiddlers Green Lyrics Goodbye Mrs Durkin Lyrics GRANDMA GOT RUN OVER BY A REINDEER Lyrics Hiring Fair Lyrics The First Love In Life Lyrics The Scottsman Lyrics ...Show All Other Artists Irma Schultz Lyrics Irma Tapio Lyrics Irma Thomas Lyrics Iron And Wine Lyrics IRON BUTTERFLY Lyrics Iron Fire Lyrics Iron Maiden Lyrics Iron Rain Lyrics Iron Savior Lyrics Iron Wine Lyrics All lyrics are property and copyright of their owners and are strictly for educational purposes only. lyricstrue.net Copyright © 2005-2007 All Rights Reserved., , Privacy policy
