Forefather pointed to kingdom come
Sadly told his only son
There must be some way out of here
Said the joker to the thief
They called everybody
But when
On my pillow last night
I thought I saw you dreaming
Corn in the fields
Listen to the rice when the wind blows ‘cross the water
Over in Killarney
Many years ago,
Out of this world
Out of this mind
Boards on the window, mail by the door
Why would anybody leave so quickly for?
You know, there’s two ol’ maids layin’ in the bed,
One picked herself up an’ the other one, she said:
If you find me in a gloom, or catch me in a dream
Inside my lonely room, there is no in between
