Wrack's dross
Fiddler's toss
Hero's pining
Faith's divining
...
I assume from the light of the moon
That your lips were made for kissing
Hold me tight, tell me everything's right
Show me all that I've been missing.
...
At last it's near! I face my death
With joyful exultation.No pain I feel, no longer life I cling to.
Strange that I have lived a life
so ordinary that it rippled not the millponds of the world.
...
Chorus:
I'll take a snooze
When I've had more bootleg booze
...
I am the smiles of Ireland
Full spirited and fine
To fill the eyes with paradise
And warm the heart like wine.
...
Our brother was always a wandering boy:

Our brother was always a wandering boy
