Toora, loora, loora, Toora, loora, li, Toora, loora, loora, Hush now don't you cry, Toora, loora, loora, Toora, loora, li, Toora, loora, loora, It's an Irish Lullaby. Over in Killarney, many years ago My mother sang this song to me In tones so sweet and low Just a simple little ditty In her good old Irish way And I'd give the world if she could sing that song to me today Oft' in dreams I wander, to that cot again, I feel her arms a-huggin' me, As when she held me then, And I hear her voice a-humming to me, As in days of yore, When she would rock me fast asleep, Outside the cabin door. Toora, loora, loora, Toora, loora, li, Toora, loora, loora, Hush now don't you cry, Toora, loora, loora, Toora, loora, li, Toora, loora, loora, It's an Irish Lullaby. It's an Irish Lullaby. |
