I crossed the channel to the other side
I'm goin’ someplace where I can’t hide
Just bought a Mustang convertible
Gonna drive it down to Myrtleville
I know an Irish girl livin’ there
Blue eyes, freckles and braided hair
We’ll catch a ferry to Saint Pol-de-Léon
I’ll be Jean-Pierre and she can be Brigitte Bardot
Hey, Cailin, will you be my Blarney Stone?
I’m upside down already, and I’m all alone
Meet me at the castle, make it my lucky day
I been in Dublin-Town a wee bit long
My only friend here is Sir Jameson
Waitin’ for the roads to rise on up
Waitin’ for the lakes to fill my cup
The girl’s a lady, she’s a walking charm
A Viking’s dream, I want her in my arms
I gotta play it cool, not make a scene
Gotta let her know that she’s my Gaelic queen
Hey, Cailin, will you be my Blarney Stone?
I’m upside down already, and I’m all alone
Meet me at the castle, make it my lucky day
