Little Town in the Old County DownI would travel far over the sea And a rocky old road I would follow to a place that is heaven to me When the sun goes to rest way down in the west Then I'll build such a nest in the place I love best Chorus In that dear little town in the old County Down It will linger way down in my heart Tho it never was grand it is my fairy land Just a wonderful world set apart O my island of dreams you are with me it seems And I care not for fame or renown Like the black sheep of old I'll return to the fold Little town in the old County Down. In the evening when shadows are falling 'Round the old door without any key There's a voice in my dreams ever callingp There are eyes ever watching for me There is someone I bless with true tenderness And her lips I'll caress when I bring happiness Chorus |
