The Homes Of Donegal Testo

I've just dropped in to see you all
I'll only stay a while
I want to hear how you're getting on
I want to see you smile
I'm happy to be back again
And greet you one and all
For there's no place else on earth just like
The homes of Donegal

I long to see your smiling children Standing by the door
The kettle boiling on the hearth
As I walk up the floor
And then to see a welcome free
For travelers one and all
For your hearts are like your mountains
In the homes of Donegal

I'd like to stay along with you
And while away the night
With fairy lore and tales of yore
Beside the turf fire bright
And then to see laid out for me
A shake-down by the wall
For there's rest for weary wanderers

In the homes of Donegal
The time has come for me to go
And bid you all adieu
For the open highway calls me back To do these things I do
But when I'm traveling far away
Your friendship I'll recall
And please God I'll soon return unto

The homes of Donegal

Donegal, Pride of all
Donegal, Pride of all
