The Homes of Donegal

歌詞

I've just dropped in to see you all I'll only stay awhile I want to hear how you're getting on I want to hear you smile I'm happy to be back again And greet you big and small For there's no place on earth just like The homes of Donegal I long to see your smiling children Standing by the door The kettle boiling on the hearth As I walk up the floor And then to see a welcome free For travellers one and all For your hearts are like your mountains In the homes of Donegal I'd like to stay along with you And while away the night With fairy lore and tales of yore Beside the turf fire bright And then to see laid out for me A shake-down by the wall For there's rest for weary wanderers In the homes of Donegal The time has come for me to go And bid you all adieu For the open highway calls me back To do these things I do But when I'm travelling far away Your friendship I'll recall And please God I'll soon return unto The homes of Donegal Donegal, Pride of all Donegal, Pride of all
