Tom Galt Christmas songs (85* d) Lyr Add: CHRISTMAS IN KILLARNEY^^ 01 Dec 97


Just found the official lyrics to "Christmas in Killarney," by Stan Rogers, and sung by Bing Crosby,
but am disappointed at how few stanzas.

I hope some of you folks know other verses.
If not, I'll just have to make up some personalized ones.
Here's the official lyrics:

Christmas in Killarney by Stan Rogers

The holly green, the ivy green
The prettiest picture you've ever seen
Is Christmas in Kil-larney
With all of the folks at home.

It's nice, you know, to kiss your beau
While cuddling under the mistletoe
And Santa Claus you know, of course
Is one of the boys from home.

The door is always open
The neighbors pay a call
And Father John be-fore he's gone
Will bless the house and all.

How grand it feels to click your heels
And join in the fun of the jigs and reels
I'm handing you no blarney
The likes you've never known
Is Christmas in Kil-lar-ney
With all of the folks at home.
