Irish Lullaby

Over in Killarney many years ago

Me mother sang a song to me

In tones so sweet and low

Just a simple little ditty

In her good loud Irish way

And l apos

D give the world if she could sing

That song to me this day

Too ra loo ra loo ral too ra loo ra li

Too ra loo ra loo ral hush now don apos

T you cry

Too ra loo ra loo ral too ra loo ra li

Too ra loo ra loo ral that apos

S an Irish lullaby

Oft in dreams I wander

To that cot again

I feel her arms a huggin apos

Me

As when she held me then

And I hear her voice a hummin apos

As in days of yore

When she used to rock me fast asleep

Outside the cabin door

Too ra loo ra loo ral too ra loo ra li

Too ra loo ra loo ral hush now don apos

T you cry

Too ra loo ra loo ral too ra loo ra li

Too ra loo ra loo ral that apos

S an Irish lullaby
