Back to County Down Lyrics
Back to County Down - Colette/Jivebeat Country
You've heard them sing about the hills of Donegal
The fields somewhere in Galway and the bushes in Ty rone
The lakes down in Kerry and always without a frown
But the one place I never hear speak is about your County Down
In the Mountains Of Mourne sweeping down to the sea
On a fine summer's day no better place to be
Strangford Lough on Sunday looking across the bay
If Heaven were just half like this I'd like to go today
Take me back to County Down where once we used to be
Living in God's own country right beside the sea
Looking at the bog tonight gleaming in the harbour light
County Down is calling what do you say
If Heaven were just half like this I'd like to go today
I remember growing up there with my Mom and my Dad
It never seemed so good back then until you miss it now
So far away from home I know I'm coming back to stay
If Heaven were just half like this I'd like to go today
Take me back to County Down where once we used to be
Living in God's own country right beside the sea
Looking at the bog tonight gleaming in the harbour light
County Down is calling what do you say
If Heaven were just half like this I'd like to go today
If Heaven were just half like this I'd like to go today
