Subject: LYRIC REQUEST:Emigrant Eyes From: Date: 20 May 97 - 10:17 AM Am looking for the lyrics of "Emigrant Eyes". I've heard it sung by De Danann's new (and excellent) male singer, but I think Dolores Keane has recorded it as well Håvard |
Subject: Lyr Add: IMMIGRANT EYES (Guy Clark & Roger Murrah) From: Ralph Butts Date: 20 May 97 - 11:43 AM This beautiful and moving song was written by Guy Clark and Roger Murrah. Enjoy.....Tiger IMMIGRANT EYES—Guy Clark & Roger Murrah
Oh, Ellis Island was swarming
They were standing in lines just like cattle,
Sometimes, when I look in my grandfather's immigrant eyes, I see that day reflected and I can't hold my feelings inside. I see starting with nothing and working hard all of his life, So, "Don't take it for granted." Say grandfather's immigrant eyes.
Now he rocks and he stares out the window,

Subject: RE: LYRIC REQUEST:Emigrant Eyes From: Bobby O'Brien Date: 20 May 97 - 10:25 PM Ireland's Sweetheart of song, Margo O'Donnell recorded a moving version of this stirring ballad in 1995 on the album "Old Friends of Mine". When you listen to her sing it, you will see the entire story in your mind's eye. Delores Keane also recorded a fabulous version in 94. |
