Annette Joy - Dublin 8 Girl

{Chorus}
I’m a Dublin 8 girl
And I love me ma
I love me chips on a Friday
A battered sausage too
Whatever you’re havin’ yourself
Ah go on, throw a spice burger in there too

{Verse 1}
‘Twas a Sunday afternoon
In the Foggy Dew
I was there with me muckers
You were there too
Lookin’ deadly and fine
Ah sure, I caught you throwin’ a glance at me
We started having’ the bants
You asked me up to dance
How could I resist that Mayo charm?
So we exchanged our numbers
Wе said we’d meet again
I should’ve known we’d bе more than just friends

{Chorus}
But I’m a Dublin 8 girl
And I love me ma
I love me chips on a Friday
A battered sausage too
Whatever you’re havin’ yourself
Ah go on, throw a spice burger in there too

{Verse 2}
We’d meet up in the Phoeno
Go for a pint, or three
I’d sometimes bring some sambos
But nothing can compare
To me ma’s fireside chair
And those chips on a Friday

{Chorus}
Cause I’m a Dublin 8 girl
And I love me ma
I love me chips on a Friday
A battered sausage too
Whatever you’re havin’ yourself
Ah go on, throw a spice burger in there too

{Verse 3}
You said you’d meet me family
Especially my mother
And I said Ma, he’s like no other!
She said I’ll see for meself
Bring him round tomorrow
But does he know you’re a Dublin 8 girl

{Chorus}
Yes I’m a Dublin 8 girl
And I love me ma
I love me chips on a Friday
A battered sausage too
Whatever you’re havin’ yourself
Ah go on, throw a spice burger in there too
