《Dear Old Donegal》歌词

[00:00:00] Dear Old Donegal - Josef Locke & Orchestra

[00:00:05] It seems like only yesterday

[00:00:07] I sailed from out of Cork

[00:00:09] A wanderer from Erin's isle

[00:00:12] I landed in New York

[00:00:14] There wasn't a soul to greet me there

[00:00:16] A stranger on your shore

[00:00:18] But Irish luck was with me here

[00:00:20] And riches came galore

[00:00:23] And now that I'm going back again

[00:00:25] To dear old Erin's isle

[00:00:27] My friends will meet me on the pier

[00:00:29] And greet me with a smile

[00:00:32] Their faces sure I've almost forgot

[00:00:34] I've been so long away

[00:00:36] But me mother will introduce them all

[00:00:38] And this to me will say

[00:00:40] Shake hands with your Uncle Mike me boy

[00:00:44] And here is your sister Kate

[00:00:46] And there's the girl you used to swing

[00:00:48] Down by the garden gate

[00:00:50] Shake hands with all of the neighbours

[00:00:53] And kiss the colleens all

[00:00:55] You're as welcome as the flowers in May

[00:00:57] To dear old Donnegal

[00:00:59] They'll give a party when I go home

[00:01:02] They'll come from near and far

[00:01:04] They'll give a party when I go home

[00:01:06] They'll line the roads for miles and miles

[00:01:08] The spirits'll flow and we'll be gay

[00:01:10] We'll fill your hearts with joy

[00:01:12] The piper'll play an Irish reel

[00:01:15] To greet the Yankee boy

[00:01:17] We'll dance and sing the whole night long

[00:01:19] Such fun as never seen

[00:01:21] The lads'll be decked in corduroy

[00:01:23] The colleens wearin' green

[00:01:26] There'll be thousands there that I never saw

[00:01:28] I've been so long away

[00:01:30] But me mother will introduce them all

[00:01:32] And this to me will say

[00:01:34] Shake hands with your Uncle Mike me boy

[00:01:38] And here is your sister Kate

[00:01:40] And there's the girl you used to swing

[00:01:42] Down by the garden gate

[00:01:44] Shake hands with all of the neighbours

[00:01:47] And kiss the colleens all

[00:01:49] You're as welcome as the flowers in May
