If You’re Irish, Step Into The Parlor

This is my favorite ditty to hear on St. Patrick’s Day, and I have no infor­ma­tion on who sang the ver­sion I know and love, what album it appears on, when, where, etc. because I can’t remem­ber the name of the cas­sette tape my mom used to play every year that included this track. I thought it was a Bing Crosby tape, but I can’t find any­where that he recorded that song, so I guess it wasn’t.

Here’s the cho­rus, my favorite part to sing:

If you’re Irish come into the par­lour,
There’s a wel­come there for you;
If your name is Tim­o­thy or Pat,
So long as you come from Ire­land,
There’s a wel­come on the mat,
