Subject: Lyr Add: WHEN IRISH EYES ARE SMILING (Olcott...) From: Ralph Butts Date: 16 Apr 97 - 03:04 PM Here it is. The second verse is rarely, if ever, performed....Tiger
From the sheet music at Mississippi State University:
1. There's a tear in your eye,
CHORUS: When Irish eyes are smiling,
2. For your smile is a part |
