Down at Malachi (The St. Malachi Church Run Song)

My alarm it woke me with the dawn, a cheery tune to greet the sun

I smiled for what was to come, today's the Malachi Church Run

Feels good, this cause is a great one, for Malachi helps everyone

Saw lots of smiling leprechauns, down at the Malachi Church Run

I ran some miles and drinks were raised, I danced a jig. St. Paddy's Day

I helped me neighbors and had some fun, down at the Malachi Church Run

Thought I should have trained at mile one. I had a blast, we all had fun

As the race flew by the mile spun Down at the Malachi Church Run

I ran the course along Erie, with friends in green all cheering me

I drank where my first beer was free, at the church run for Malachi

I ran some miles and drinks were raised, I danced a jig. St. Paddy's Day

I helped me neighbors and had some fun, down at the Malachi Church Run

The runners rose now with the sun, at the Malachi Church Run

The emcee danced until the gun, at the Malachi Church Run

The Hooley raged, we all had fun, at the Malachi Church Run

My brother really tied one on, at the Malachi Church Run

With jigs and them funky ceilis, adrift in the high craic, you see

We raised a glass at the Hooley, down at the run for Malachi

We ran the race and songs were sung, we toasted sláinte all day long

The cause was strong and good was done, down at the Malachi Church Run

I ran some miles and drinks were raised, I danced a jig. St. Paddy's Day

I helped me neighbors and had some fun, down at the Malachi Church Run

I ran some miles and drinks were raised, I danced a jig. St. Paddy's day

I helped me neighbors and had some fun, down at the Malachi Church Run

Yes, down at the Malachi Church Run
