Damien Dempsey - It's All Good

Damien Dempsey performs "It's All Good" live in Ireland from July 2005.

LYRICS:
I am an angry man yeah, I vent it when I can, yeah
On the bag, not the skag
The negativity, yeah, pushed onto young paddy, yeah
Is a shame, whose to blame?
And when the baby cries, yeah, she has been criticised, yeah
Been put down, it's passed down

But it's all good, it's all good
All I say to you today
It's all good, sure it's all good
All I say to you today

And positivity, yeah, it is the way for me, yeah
It is truth, it is youth
They try to keep us down, yeah
They hide the high kings crown, yeah
From the Gaels, Kathleen wails
And to survive their sting, yeah
You have to be the king, yeah
Grasp the wealth of yourself

Love yourself today, ok, ok

The bag is the punch bag & the skag is "gear" or class A drug. Damo's saying take his frustration out at the gym on a punchbag rather than a needle/drugs

[EcoLibertarian]

Does "on the bag" refer to a punching bag, or the bagpipes?

Ans is "skag" referring to nasty people, bad experiences or drugs?

I know that Kathleen is Caitlín Ní Uallacháin.
