Party With Them

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Forty-three years of morning light, A green flag waving proud and bright. From army boots to jumping free, You fell to earth and rose for me. And there in every crowded room, The whole world knows your name real soon. [Chorus] Oh Jack, you gave the world a song, A dance that carried us along. An hour in a bar, we've got a friend, "Party with them or without you" til the end. Love and laughter, a legacy so true, Every road I've walked, I walked with you. [Verse 2] Retrievers running through the door, The horses, cats, and so much more. A coastal home, the salt-sea air, A Tahoe view beyond compare. That ranch beneath Yosemite skies, And gold reflected in your eyes. [Chorus] Oh Jack, you gave the world a song, A dance that carried us along. An hour in a bar, we've got a friend, "Party with them or without you" til the end. Love and laughter, a legacy so true, Every road I've walked, I walked with you. [Bridge] Three little ones who grew up tall, Six more grandbabies, bless them all. The Irish blood, the steady hand, The kindest heart in all this land. [Verse 3] You buy the room a round and grin, The life of every place you're in. No special day, no reason why, Just love beneath a Tahoe sky. So here's to us, and all we've done, My Jack, my heart, my only one. [Chorus] Oh Jack, you gave the world a song, A dance that carried us along. An hour in a bar, we've got a friend, "Party with them or without you" til the end. Love and laughter, a legacy so true, Every road I've walked, I walked with you. [Outro] Still dancing after all these years, My Irish love, through joy and tears.
