FAMOUS IRISH SONGS: AN IRISH LULLABY
==================================

The famous Irish song 'An Irish Lullaby' (also known as 'Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral') was originally written in 1914 by the composer James Royce Shannon (1881–1946). The song was popularised by Bing Crosby who famously sang it in the 1941 film 'Going My Way'. Over in Killarney Many years ago, Me Mither sang a song to me In tones so sweet and low. Just a simple little ditty, In her good ould Irish way, And I'd give the world if she could sing That song to me this day. 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 lullaby. Oft in dreams I wander To that cot again, I feel her arms a-huggin' me As when she held me then. And I hear her voice a-hummin' To me as in days of yore, When she used to rock me fast asleep Outside the cabin door.
