Eddie Rabbitt - Song Of Ireland Lyrics
I remember daddy playing on the violin,Jigs and reels that he brought from Ireland.And I'm the first born in America, my friend.I have never been there but someday I'll take a trip.I'll cross the ocean on a big long silver ship.Hear them sing those songs I learned from Mama's kneeI just close my eyes and I can almost see,Those shamrock hills and those forty shades of green.And the roots that tie me to a land I've never knownAre calling me home, are calling me home.Sun shines through my window here in Tennessee.God sure made this a pretty place to be.But sometimes it just don't feel like home to me.So I close my eyes and I can almost seeThose shamrock hills and those forty shades of green.And the roots that tie me to a land I've never knownAre calling me home.Are calling me home.Are calling me home.
