Collection of Irish Song Lyrics
Seven Fishes Seven Potatoes
Copyright: 2025
If you ve ever heard of the Italian seven fishes
The Irish choose potatoes but pass on the knishes
We bake em and broil em fry em and boil em
shred em and scallop em too,
Tater salad - smash em and mash em
and a proper Guinness stew!
Every Christmas Eve Italians make their holy wishes
And hope their prayers are answered if they eat all seven fishes
But the Irish eat potatoes in most any form thats known
Not just on Christmas Eve but every day in every home!
We slice em and dice em we all want to try some
we use em for making a fry!
Theres nothing more foxy than dinner with boxty
unless its a good shepherds pie!
We bake em and broil em fry em and boil em
shred em and scallop em too
Tater salad - smash em and mash em,
and a proper Guinness stew!
