I fell in love with Ireland as I wrote this song and made this video,This song took me and my family on a great adventure to a magical island.

This song teaches the basics of St. Patrick, and March 17 festivities. Great to teach children and for parents too. Recording the song was grand old fun. I played hand drum, banjo, fiddle, a toy accordion and the penny flute that my mom brought me from Ireland. Happy Holiday!

Potatoes and Cabbage (lyrics) ©Poppinksongs 2011

St. Patrick's Day is so much fun
Coloring shamrocks in the sun
So do a dance and bang a drum
And eat potatoes and cabbage

St Paddy's got a history
He was kind and good you see
He followed all his magic dreams
And ate potatoes and cabbage

He was kidnapped at 16
By Irish raiders cruel and mean but
He got away and studied and prayed
And ate potatoes and cabbage

He brought the Irish people faith
He built a church, became a saint
Some people say he scared the snakes
And ate potatoes and cabbage

We celebrate March 17
So don't get pinched and wear some green
Welcome in the sunny spring and
Eat potatoes and cabbage

Let's be Irish, sing a song and
Look for clovers on the lawn
A leprechaun may come a long he'll be
Eating potatoes and cabbage
Eating potatoes and cabbage
Eating potatoes and cabbage

Wonderfully fun video, except for the fact that it says "Happy St Patty's Day" - I don't know who this St. Patty is, but he/she has nothing to do with St. Patrick - if you want to shorten the name it's Paddy, not Patty.

@emmelinegreer Wow! Thanks so much for writing. I took that from some clip art I found which was WRONG! I changed it to St. Paddy. Thanks again.... I never knew. But we are going to Ireland!!! YIPPEEE! And now I'll know better.

I am so glad he likes it! I made it for him... to make him happy and lucky!
