A Little Bit of Heaven - John Gary

作词：J. Keirn Brennan/Ernest R. Ball

作曲：J. Keirn Brennan/Ernest R. Ball

There's a dear old land of leprechauns

And wondrous wishing wells

And nowhere else on God's green Earth

There be such lakes and dells

No wonder that the angels love

That shamrock covered shore

I little be that having

And I love it more and more

I love it more and more

Have you ever heard the story of

How Ireland got it's name

Well I'll tell you so you'll understand

From whence old Ireland came

No wonder that where pround

That dear land across the sea

For here's the way my dear old mather

Told the tale to me

Sure a little bit of heaven fell

From out the sky one day

And it nestled on the ocean

In a spot so far away

And when the angels found it

Sure it looked so sweet and fair

They said Suppose we leave it

For it looks so peaceful there

So they sprinkled it with stardust

Just to make the shamrocks grow

'Tis the only place you'll find them

No matter where you go

Then they dotted it with silver

To make it's lakes so grand

And when they had it finished

Sure they called it Ireland
