Irish traditional song lyrics \u2014 collected by Beer Belly Band.<\/em><\/p>\n

I’m not the kind to complain that I never had a girl to love
\nMany fine girls I tried hard to know, but I guess I never tried enough
\nSitting one day by myself and thinking what could be wrong
\nWhen this funny little hedgehog, come running up to me
\nAnd he starts up to singin’ this song<\/p>\n

Chorus:
\nOh you know all the words, and you sung all the notes
\nBut you never quite learned the song, she sang
\nI can tell by the sadness in your eyes
\nThat you never quite learned the song<\/p>\n

Every day when the sun goes down and the evening is so very still
\nMany fine girls I’ve held in my arms and I hope there’s many more that I will
\nBut just when everything is right and absolutely nothing is wrong
\nThere’s this funny little hedgehog, he’s always around,
\nAnd he always wants to sing me this song<\/p>\n

Chorus<\/p>\n

One day when the moon was blue, I thought I might settle down
\nFound myself a pretty little girl and stopped all my running around
\nBut just when the preacher come along and he’s just going to pop on the ring
\nAnd this funny little hedgehog comes running down the aisle
\nAnd I don’t have to tell you what he did sing<\/p>\n

Chorus<\/p>\n

I’m not the kind to complain that I never had a girl to love
\nMany fine girls I tried hard to know, but I guess I never tried enough
\nNow I’ll sitting all my days and it isn’t just me I’ve gotta please
\nThere’s this funny little hedgehog he’s always around
\nAnd the only words he ever sings to me are these<\/p>\n
