What Makes The Irish Heart Beat - Van Morrison




All that trouble all that grief
Thatīs why I had to leave
Staying away too tong is in defeat
Why Iīm singing this song
Why Iīm heading back home
Thatīs what makes the Irish heart beat

Iīm just like a hobo riding a train
Iīm like a gangster living in Spain
Have to watch my back and Iīm running out of time
When I roll the dice again
If lady luck will call my name
Thatīs what makes the Irish heart beat

Well thatīs what makes it beat
When Iīm standing on the street
And Iīm standing underneath this Wrigleyīs sign
Oh so far away from home
But I know Iīve got to roam
Thatīs what makes the Irish heart beat

And it was off to foreign climes
On the Piccadilly line
We were standing underneath the Wrigleyīs sign
So far away from home
Well I know Iīve got to roam
That s what makes the Irish heart beat

Just like a sailor out on the foam
Any port in a storm
Where we tend to burn the candle at both ends
Down the corridors of fame
Like the spark ignites the flame
Thatīs what makes the Irish heart beat

But I roll the dice again
If lady luck will call my name
That s what makes the Irish heart beat
Oh, thatīs what makes the Irish heart beat
Thatīs what makes the Irish heart beat
