Oh the springtime returns tae the Laggan again And the lark sweetly sings ower the green fertle plain I'll tak' the road that is dearest to me The road tae Drumleman that winds tae the sea For I've made many friends there on every green mile And the folks always greet me with a wave and a smile If I spend all my days here, it's happy I'll be On the road tae Drumleman that winds tae the sea For we've sat 'roond the fireside when the winter wind blew And we've laughed and we've sang 'til the night was weel through And we've had a good dram and a wee cup o' tea On the road tae Drumleman that winds tae the sea
And the lang summer days when we've tramped the hills ower Tae spend hoors at the Eenans on Creggan's wild shore And the soft summer twilight made shadows tae flee On the road tae Drumleman that winds tae the sea Oh these days pa**in' swiftly bring changes, I know And as time marches on from this place we must go But I'll ever remember while the heart beats in me The road tae Drumleman that winds tae the sea So the springtime returns tae the Laggan again And the lark sweetly sings ower the green fertle plain I'll tak' the road that is dearest to me The road tae Drumleman that winds tae the sea
