Jumped on the tourist bus this grey Dublin morning

As a gentle refreshing misty rain was falling

It took me on a journey to a cemetery named Glasnevin

On arrival I could hear my brother in law calling

It was just like a voice from heaven above

Here I stand respectfully by his peaceful grave

The grand old times they came flooding back

He always said “we are not here for a long time

We are here for a good time”

Miraculously I have a pint in my hand enjoying the craic

The sun bursts through the cloudy skies

From the man himself it was to be sure a sign

As I wipe a happy tear from my emotional eye

I am suddenly feeling upbeat and oh so fine

Here lies a man who lived his life to the full

Kind loving and generous to one and all

He would give you the shirt off his back

The life and soul of the party having a ball

He could always tell a tale that was tall

A year has passed since he has been gone

His legacy will forever live on and on

His favourite song was Frank singing my way

Dave Hussey certainly did it his way

What more can I possibly say
