A good lyric is like a great book... |
A St. Patrick's Day favorite...simple, but so lovely (and it just happens to be in Purely Vocals' repertoire, in four part harmony of course!).
Bing Crosby, Artists
James Royce Shannon, Composer (gotta love that name!)
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, Too-ra-loo-ra-li,
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, hush now, don't you cry!
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, Too-ra-loo-ra-li,
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, that's an Irish lullaby.
Over in Killarney,
Many years ago.
Me mother sang a 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 this day.
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, Too-ra-loo-ra-li,
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, hush now, don't you cry!
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, Too-ra-loo-ra-li,
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, that's an Irish lullaby.
