The Gift Of The Gab
( The Blarney Stone Song )

The Blarney Stone
Is 4 feet long and one foot wide
A limestone slab up 85 feet high

If your short of words
You give it a kiss
From that day on
Words will fall from your lips


Head to the castle
And become the king of the throne
Hang upside down and kiss The Blarney Stone


Bend backwards just like a crab
And give the stone a kiss for the gift of
Gab
Bend backwards and you kiss the slab
Then You’ll have the gift of the gab

You bend backwards if it’s wind or rain
You bend backwards you’ll feel no pain
You bend backwards and kiss the slab
Then you’ll havе the gift of the gab
Then you’ll havе the gift of the gab


You’ll be lowered
Down with one big grab
Next thing you know you’ll be facing the slab


Crane your neck back and your lips touch
The magic stone
It will kiss you back as a gentle wind is blowing’


Don’t be scared, don’t you cry
Enjoy every second
While you face the sky

And forever the magic
Will be with you wherever
You go
You’ve been kissed by a stone that’s a million years old

It’s not just a brick
And it’s not just a slab
It’s a special stone
That gives you the gift of the gab



So, bend backwards just like a crab
And give the stone a kiss for the gift of
The gab
Bend backwards and you kiss the slab
Then You’ll have the gift of the gab

You bend backwards if it’s wind or rain
You bend backwards you’ll feel no pain
You bend backwards and kiss the slab
Then you’ll have the gift of the gab
Then you’ll have the gift of the gab
