- Las Vegas In The Hills Of Donegal Lyrics / with translationsYou may talk about Atlantis, how it's lost
beneath the sea
Or the grave of the unknown soldier and 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, and it’s
still a mystery
And if I could I'd build a wall around auld
Donegal
The north and south to keep them out, my
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, black
jack and roulette
Mel Gibson, Brigitte Nielsen, Mike Tyson
having a bet
Inishowen would then be known for it's
multi-millionaires
Where Donald Trump would have a chunk to
live in solitaire
And if I could I'd build a wall around auld
Donegal
The north and south to keep them out, my
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
I've heard them say in Dublin there’s gold
in them there hills
So don't despair, 'cos 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 auld
Donegal
The north and south to keep them out, my
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
beneath the sea
Or the grave of the unknown soldier and 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, and it’s

And if I could I'd build a wall around auld
Donegal
The north and south to keep them out, my
