Moon Over Ireland
There's a moon over Ireland comes in from the sea
'Cross the mountains and valleys where the rivers run free
From the days of my childhood, oh, I've always known
There's a moon over Ireland that shines on my home
Go down the one road from Cork to Killarney and follow on to Tralee
And you won't be tongue tight when you kiss the Blarney
There's no fairer place you can be
I love you Galway, Limerick and Derry
Sligo and Monaghan, Mayo and Clare
They say it's a long, long way to Tipperary
But that doesn't matter to me
I miss the Shannon, the hills of Roscommon
The green fields in my memory
And I want to tell all my friends and my family
In Donegal, I'm coming home
I love you Galway, Limerick and Derry
Sligo and Monaghan, Mayo and Clare
They say it's a long, long way to Tipperary
But that doesn't matter to me
There's a moon over Ireland comes in from the sea
'Cross the mountains and valleys where the rivers run free
From the days of my childhood, oh, I've always known
There's a moon over Ireland that shines on my home
There's a moon over Ireland that shines on my home!
'Cross the mountains and valleys where the rivers run free
From the days of my childhood, oh, I've always known
There's a moon over Ireland that shines on my home
Go down the one road from Cork to Killarney and follow on to Tralee
And you won't be tongue tight when you kiss the Blarney
There's no fairer place you can be
I love you Galway, Limerick and Derry
Sligo and Monaghan, Mayo and Clare
They say it's a long, long way to Tipperary
But that doesn't matter to me
I miss the Shannon, the hills of Roscommon
The green fields in my memory
And I want to tell all my friends and my family
In Donegal, I'm coming home
I love you Galway, Limerick and Derry
Sligo and Monaghan, Mayo and Clare
They say it's a long, long way to Tipperary
But that doesn't matter to me
There's a moon over Ireland comes in from the sea
'Cross the mountains and valleys where the rivers run free
From the days of my childhood, oh, I've always known
There's a moon over Ireland that shines on my home
There's a moon over Ireland that shines on my home!
