Proof that Barack O'Bama Is Irish!



Watch this video. It's 5 minutes long, but you won't be sorry.

Sing along:

O'Leary, O'Reilly, O'Hare and O'Hara
There's no one as Irish as Barack O'Bama
From the old Blarney Stone to the green hills of Tara
There's no one as Irish as Barack O'Bama

Tooral - U
Tooral - S
Tooral - A
Toor a lama

There's no one as Irish as Barack O'Bama


Stolen from Fran, who stole it from someone else We're nothing but a bunch of blogging thieves.

  1. And I'm lifting it from you. It's the best version of this tune I've heard. Thanks, All!

  2. CJ, help yourself. You see I've added the words, laboriously copied from the video, because I want everyone to sing along and enjoy it as much as I did - as I do, really, because I've played it over and over.

  4. Well, I transcribed all the verses, too, with misspellings aplenty, I'm sure, but I thought we might use it at our Election Returns Watch Party Tues night. Come on over to www.pvillepost.blogspot.com and help yourself. And if anyone knows the correct spelling on these names, please let me know.

  5. CJ, I did only the chorus and the last verse. I liked the toorals.

    There. I played it again.

  6. Glad that you enjoyed and lifted. I keep playing it- very catchy!!

    And I love when he sings "ignorama" at about 3:40. Hahahahaha.

    I actually got it at dotCommonweal, which is the blog of the Catholic magazine Commonweal.
