Come Back Paddy Reilly - Brendan O'Dowda[00:00:00]
The garden of Eden has vanished they say[00:00:12]
But I know the lie of It still[00:00:18]
Just turn to the left at the bridge of finer[00:00:23]
And stop when halfway to cootehill[00:00:27]
It's there I'll find It I know sure enough[00:00:32]
When fortune has come to my call[00:00:37]
The grass It Is green around ballyjamesduff[00:00:43]
And the blue sky Is over It all[00:00:48]
And tones that are tender and tones that are ruff[00:00:54]
Come whispering over the sea[00:00:59]
Come back paddy Reilly to ballyjamesduff[00:01:05]
Come home paddy Reilly to me[00:01:11]
My mother once told me that when I was born[00:01:27]
The day that I first saw the light[00:01:33]
I looked down the street on that very first morn[00:01:37]
And gave a crow of delight[00:01:42]
Now most newborn babies appear In a puff[00:01:47]
And start with a sorrowful squall[00:01:52]
But I knew I was born In ballyjamesduff[00:01:58]
And that's why I smiled at them all[00:02:03]
The baby's a man now he's toil-worn and tough[00:02:09]
Still whispers come over the sea[00:02:15]
Come back paddy Reilly to ballyjamesduff[00:02:23]
Come home paddy Reilly to me[00:02:31]
