Over In k**arney Many years ago My Mother sang a song to me In tones so sweet and low; Just a simple little ditty In her good old Irish way And I'd give the world to hear her sing That song of hers today [Chorus] Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, Too-ra-loo-ra-li Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, Hush now don't you cry! Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, Too-ra-loo-ra-li Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, That's an Irish lul-la-by [Verse 2] Oft, in dreams I wander To that cot again I feel her arms a-hugging me As when she held me then And I hear her voice a humming To me as in days of yore When she used to rock me fast asleep Outside the cabin door [Repeat Chorus] Another verse... Oh I can hear that music I can hear that song Filling me with memories Of a mother's love so strong Its melody still haunts me These many years gone bye Too ra loo ra loo ral Until the day I die
