- Maybe it's Because I'm an Irish Londoner

 

A statement of pride in being from London of Irish descent.
 No matter where in Ireland your heritage lies there's a pride in being from your home town.
 The traditions and feelings run deep in the Irish communities around the UK
 this fact should be celebrated, although all too often it is dismissed by the Ireland-born Irish.
 A pun on an old cockney song 'Maybe it's because I'm a Londoner.'
Ronan

Maybe it's because I'm an Irish Londoner
Maybe that's what makes me what I am
You can hear it in my accent when I talk
I'm a proud London Irish man
All you Harrow Hooligans stand up & say 'Hello'
Don't matter if your father is from Galway or Mayo
Or if you're Kilkenny, Tipperary or Tyrone
Proud London Irish Boys
Maybe it's because I'm an Irish Londoner
Maybe that's what makes me what I am
You can hear it in my accent when I talk
I'm a proud London Irish man
In the Old Crown Hayes Town where Paddy used to Roam
The Celtic Boys in Morgans where You'll Never Walk Alone
In and out the pubs all along the Uxbridge Rd
All proud London Irish Boys
Maybe it's because I'm an Irish Londoner
Maybe that's what makes me what I am
You can hear it in my accent when I talk
I'm a proud London Irish man
When it comes to saying who you are it's all about the Blood
When it comes to where you're from then don't forget your neighbourhood
The streets & the churches & the pubs in where you stood
With your proud London Irish Boys
Maybe it's because I'm an Irish Londoner
(Maybe it's because I'm an Irish Londoner)
Maybe it's because I'm an Irish Londoner
(Maybe it's because I'm an Irish Londoner)
Maybe it's because I'm an Irish Londoner
Maybe that's what makes me what I am
You can hear it in my accent when I talk
I'm a proud London Irish man
