[Verse 1 – Immediate Chaos]
Stepped into Limerick, bold as brass
They looked me up and said, “She won’t last”
One raised brow, one shook his head
“Give her a pint, she’ll drop instead”
[Pre-Chorus]
I said, “I’m fine,” they said, “We’ll see”
“Ah here now, love, you’ll never keep up with we”
[Chorus]
It’s the Limerick welcome, sharp and fast
They’ll laugh at you, then buy the glass
Call you out, then pull you in
Lose your pride before you win
Raise it high, don’t mind the fall
They’ll take the mick, then toast you all
If you make it through the door
You’ll be one of them—and more
[Verse 2 – Roasting Intensifies]
Tried me best with a clever line
They tore it up in half the time
“Is that your chat? Ah God, that’s rough”
“Another round, she’s not had enough!”
[Pre-Chorus]
I laughed it off, they grinned real wide
“Ah she’s got fight, we’ll keep her inside”
[Chorus]
It’s the Limerick welcome, sharp and fast
They’ll laugh at you, then buy the glass
Call you out, then pull you in
Lose your pride before you win
Raise it high, don’t mind the fall
They’ll take the mick, then toast you all
If you make it through the door
You’ll be one of them—and more
[Bridge – Peak Chaos]
Someone’s singin’, someone’s shoutin’
Two lads nearly started routin’
Barmaid winked, “You’ll live, don’t fret”
“Worst night yet? Ah, not just yet!”
[Final Chorus – Full Pub Roar]
It’s the Limerick welcome, loud and wild
They’ll break you down, then call you child
Arm in arm, you’re swept away
Swore you’d leave—you’re here to stay
Raise it high, don’t mind the fall
They’ll take the mick, then toast you all
You came in strange, but now you’re known
Limerick’s claimed you as their own
