It seems like yesterday I from out of cork A wanderer from Erin's I landed in New
wasn't a soul to greet me there A stranger on your But Irish was with me here And riches came
And now that I'm going again To dear old Erin's My will meet me on the pier And greet me with a
Their faces, sure, I've forgot I've so long away But me mother will them all And to me will say
Shake hands your uncle mike, me boy And is your sister, Kate And there's the you used to swing Down by the gate
Shake hands with all of the And kiss the all You're as as the flowers in may To dear old
give a party when I go home They'll come from and far They'll the roads for miles and miles With Irish jauntin'
The spirits flow and we'll be gay We'll your hearts with joy The piper will play an Irish To greet the boy
dance and sing the whole night long Such fun as never The lads be decked in corduroy The Colleens wearin'
There'll be there that I never saw I've so long away But me mother will them all And to me will say
Shake with your uncle mike, me boy And is your sister, Kate And there's the you used to swing Down by the garden
Shake hands with all of the And kiss the all You're as as the flowers in may To dear old
