Lyrics

You may talk about Atlantis, how it's lost beneath the sea
And the grave of the unknown soldier, or the cry of the old banshee
Who was the man in the iron mask, was Jack the Ripper set free
But ask them all, "Where's Donegal?", it's still a mystery

And if I could, I'd build a wall around old Donegal
The north and south to keep them out, by God I'd build it tall
Casinos, chicken ranches, I'd legalize them all
We'd have our own Las Vegas in the hills of Donegal
Yeah, Las Vegas in the hills of Donegal

Playboy clubs, and all night pubs, blackjack and roulette
Mel Gibson, Brigitte Neilsen, Mike Tyson having a bet
Inishowen could then be known for it's multi-millionaires
Where Donald Trump would like a chunk to live in solitaire

And if I could, I'd build a wall around old Donegal
The north and south to keep them out, by God I'd build it tall
Casinos, chicken ranches, I'd legalize them all
We'd have our own Las Vegas in the hills of Donegal
Yeah, Las Vegas in the hills of Donegal

To stand on top of Errigal would give me such a thrill
We hear them say in Dublin, "There's gold in them their hills"
So don't despair 'cause if you dare, the answer lies with me
There's a wall that's steep and it's going cheap somewhere in Germany

And if I could, I'd build a wall around old Donegal
The north and south to keep them out, by God I'd build it tall
Casinos, chicken ranches, I'd legalize them all
We'd have our own Las Vegas in the hills of Donegal
Yeah, Las Vegas in the hills of Donegal
