Home to Mayo

Home to Mayo - Connie Foley

In Bellmullet town

Where I first saw the light

Where the waves of the sea roared

By day and by night

I traveled miles

On land and on sea

But a journey I'll make

And soon that will be

Home to Mayo

Home to Mayo

Someone is waiting for me I know

In the firelight

Her smile will be bright

And my hearts in the cottage

In county Mayo

I would love to go back

To old Ireland once more

And to roam through the scenes

As in days of your

Surely this summer

Please God I will go

Back to my home

In the county Mayo

Home to Mayo

Home to Mayo

Someone is waiting

For me I know

In the firelight

Her smile will be bright

And my hearts in the cottage

In county Mayo

I have seen famous city

In bright dazzling skies

And the girls I saw

There were a sight for the eyes

But I'd leave them all

And never more roam

For two eyes like the stars

Are calling me home

Home to Mayo

Home to Mayo

Someone is waiting

For me I know

In the firelight

Her smile will be bright

And my hearts in the cottage

In county Mayo
