Over in Kelarny many years ago
My mother sang a song to me in tone so sweet and low
Just a simple little bitty 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 loi too ra loo ra loo ral hush now don't you cry
Too ra loo ra loo ral too ra loo ra loo loi too ra loo ra loo ral that's an Irish lullaby
Often in dreams I wonder to that cut again
I feel her arms a huggin' me as when she held me then
And I hear her voice a hummin' to me as in days of yore
When she used to rock me fast asleep outside the cabin door
Too ra loo ra
