lyrics

SOME OF IRELAND’S LOVELY SIGHTS
NORTH, SOUTH, EAST AND WEST
AND ALSO A LOVE SONG

CHORUS:
HAVE YOU SEEN THE SUN GO DOWN ON CONNEMARA
HAVE YOU SEEN THE FISHING BOATS IN DINGLE BAY
HAVE YOU BEEN TO DONEGAL HAVE YOU SEEN GLENARIFF FALLS
I’D BE VERY GLAD TO GUIDE YOU ON THE WAY
YES VERY GLAD TO GUIDE YOU ON THE WAY

VERSE 1:
THE NORTHERN COAST IT SPARKLES LIKE A JEWEL
WHEN THE ANTRIM GLENS ARE WET WITH MORNING DEW
THE GOLDEN PORTRUSH STRAND AND THE GIANT’S CAUSEWAY GRAND
ARE LOVELY BUT NOT HALF AS NICE AS YOU

VERSE 2:
TO WALK ALONG THE BANKS BESIDE THE LIFFEY
AS DUBLIN COMES AWAKE WITH ALL HER CHARMS
WITH THE CRAIC AND GUINNESS STOUT SURE IT’S HEAVEN HEARABOUTS
THOUGH I KNOW I’D BE IN HEAVEN IN YOUR ARMS

VERSE 3:
YOU’LL HEAR THE SHANDON BELLS OF CORK A-RINGING
THAT GRAND OULD CITY ON THE RIVER LEE
THERE’S THE BLARNEY STONE TO KISS DON’T FORGET TO MAKE A WISH
BUT I WISH INSTEAD THAT YOU WERE KISSING ME

VERSE 4:
THERE’S SPLENDOUR IN THE MIGHTY CLIFFS OF MOHER
AND THERE’S BEAUTY IN KILLARNEY’S LAKES SO BLUE
FROM DERRY TO TRALEE THERE’S LOVELY SIGHTS TO SEE
THOUGH THE ONLY SIGHT I SEE IS LOVELY YOU

VERSE 5:
SAYS SHE I’VE SEEN THE WONDERS OF OLD IRELAND
SO YOUR BLARNEY TONGUE WAS ALL IN VAIN YOU KNOW
YOU NEEDN’T HAVE TRIED SO HARD TO CATCH ME OFF ME GUARD
FOR YOU HAD ME HEART WHEN FIRST YOU SAID HELLO

CHORUS: #2
I’VE SEEN THE SUN GO DOWN ON CONNEMARA
AND I’VE SEEN THE FISHING BOATS IN DINGLE BAY
I’VE BEEN TO DONEGAL AND I’VE SEEN GLENARIFF FALLS
I’D BE VERY GLAD TO GUIDE YOU ON THE WAY

CHORUS: #3
I’VE SEEN THE SUN GO DOWN ON CONNEMARA
AND I’VE SEEN THE FISHING BOATS IN DINGLE BAY
I’VE BEEN TO DONEGAL AND I’VE SEEN GLENARIFF FALLS
I’D BE VERY GLAD TO GUIDE YOU ON THE WAY
YES VERY GLAD TO GUIDE YOU ON THE WAY
YES VERY GLAD TO BE WITH YOU TODAY
