How Can You Buy Killarney/An Irish Lullaby

An American landed on Erin's green isle

He gazed on killarny with a rapturous smile

How can I buy it he said to the guy

I'll tell you how with a smile he replied

How can you buy all the stars in the sky

How can you buy two Blue Irish eyes

When you can purchase a fine mothers heart

Then you can buy killarny

Nature restore on her guilt's with a smile

Me and Rose the shamrock and the barley

When you can buy all those wonderful things

Then you can buy killarny

Over in Killarny, Many years ago

There's a song my mother sang to me

In a voice so sweet and low

Just a simple Irish ditty

In her sweet old fashion way

And I'd give the world if I could hear

That song of hers today

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 lullaby
