Green and Red of Mayo

Oh the Green and Red of Mayo

I can see it still

It's soft and craggy boglands

It's tall majestic hills

Where the ocean kisses Ireland

And the waves carress it's shore

Oh the feelin' it came over me

To stay forever more

Forever more

♪

From it's rollin' coastal waters

I can see Croagh Patrick's peak

Where one Sunday every Summer

The pilgrims climb the reek

Where Saint Patrick in it's solitude

Looked down across Clew Bay

And With the ringin' of his bell

Called the faithful there to pray

There to pray

♪

Oh take me to Clare Island

The home of Granuaile

It's waters harbour fishes

From the herring to the whale

And now I must depart it

And reality is plain

May the time not pass so slowly

'Fore I set sail again

Set sail again

Oh the Green and Red of Mayo

I can see it still

Where the ocean kisses Ireland

And the waves carress it's shore

Oh the feelin' it came over me

To stay forever more

Forever more

Stay forever more
