I'll take you home again
Kathlee-een
Across the ocean
Wild and wi-ide
To where your heart
Has ever bee-een
Since first you were
My bonnie bride

The roses all
Have left your cheek
I watched them
Fade away and die
Your voice is sad
When you speak
And tears bedim
Your lovin' eyes

Oh-oh-oh-oh-I will take you back
Kathlee-ee-een
To where your heart
Will feel no pai-ain
And when the fields
Are fresh and gree-een
I-I'II take you to your home
Kathleen

[whistle]

Mm-mm, mm-mm-mm-mm-mm-mm

And when the fields
Are fresh and gree-een
I-I-I'II take you to your home
Kathlee-een
