(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.
(verse)
over in killarney, many years ago,
my mother sang a song to me in tones so soft and low.
just a simple little ditty in her good old irish way.
and i'd give the world if i could hear that song of hers today.
(repeat chorus)
