Over in Kelarny many years ago
|
My mother sang a song to me in tone so sweet and low
|
Just a simple little bitty in her good old Irish way
|
And I'd give the world if she could sing that song to me this day
|
Too ra loo ra loo ral too ra loo ra loi too ra loo ra loo ral hush now don't you cry
|
Too ra loo ra loo ral too ra loo ra loo loi too ra loo ra loo ral that's an Irish lullaby
|
|
Often in dreams I wonder to that cut again
|
I feel her arms a huggin' me as when she held me then
|
And I hear her voice a hummin' to me as in days of yore
|
When she used to rock me fast asleep outside the cabin door
|
Too ra loo ra...
