If We Only Had Old Ireland Over Here(Remastered 2017) - Slim Dusty

作曲：Traditional

I was dreaming of old Ireland

and killarney's lakes and fells

I was dreaming of the shamrock

and the dear old shandon bells

When my memory suggested

in a vision bright and clear

All the strange things that would happen

If we had old Ireland here

If the blarney stone stood out

on sydney harbour

And dublin town to melbourne

came to stay

If the Shannon River joined the

brisbane waters

And killarney's lakes flowed into

botany bay

If the shandon bells rang out in

old freemantle

And county cork in adelaide did appear

Erin's sons would never roam

all the boys would stay at home

If we only had old Ireland over here

There are lots of lovely fairies

Dancing on the village green

There are lots of lovely colleens

The finest ever seen

Where the boys are

all called paddy and the

Girls called molly dear

Sure we'd wrap the green

flag 'round them

If we had old Ireland here

If the shandon bells rang

out in old freemantle

And county cork it adelaide did appear

Erin's sons would never roam

all the boys would stay at home

If we only had old Ireland over here

If we only had old Ireland over here
