How Can You Buy Killarny / An Irish Lullaby

This little song I use to sing to my lad whose in
the crowd tonight I’m going to embarrass him now
when he was only a baby he is now 20 yrs old

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 ould 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.
