Tom Whalen

You’re a good man Tom Whalen
Even though your drinks are neat
You’re a good man Tom Whalen
Especially when on your feet

I’ve seen your feelings held in check
I’ve seen blue fire in your eyes
I’ve seen red rise your face and neck
But never have I heard you lie

You married well a maid of choice
Had three children to fill the mean
Much too often you hear her voice
To override the field of scene

Listen well my Irish lad
A veteran in the field of life
The real you live is not too bad
Your children and a super wife

Before we know we’re dust and bone
Lean back and kiss the blarney stone

Top o' the morning, Mr. T.!

Methinks I'd like a drink or two,
With Tommy Whalen and Mister YOU!


Let's belly up to the bar boys! ~ and share a blarney tale or two!

Enjoyed this morning's offerings! Green looks good on you!

Shamrock blessings,
EA

Something tells me that you are not Irish,
though I think you would aspire to being
one.....  G'mornin Sir Sy....
