Drink a Round to Ireland (LP版)

Drink A Round To Ireland (LP版) - Judy Collins

Father was a singing man

Most of what he sang

Had to do with ireland

The place from where he came

Ireland of his childhood

Ireland of his spring

To return to

Ireland was his dream

Drink a round to

Ireland boys

I'm home again

Drink a round to jesus

Christ who died for irishmen

I guess he left his dreams to me

After he was gone

And there were many years

To come when I sang

My father's song

And so I came to

Ireland

Here I live today

Lately I've been wondering

Why I stay

Drink a round to

I

Reland boys

I'm home again

Drink a round to jesus

Christ who died for irishmen

Dad I think you're fortunate

Your dreams did not come true

I know that it would break

Your heart to see

The things we do

If you could see

The murder here

If you could

Feel the pain

To see the way we live

Would bring you shame

Drink a round to

Ireland boys

I'm home again

Drink a round to jesus

Christ who died for irishmen

Drink a round to

Ireland boys

I'm home again

Drink a round to jesus

Christ who died for

Irishmen
