The lights of London are far behind.
CHO: This is my homeland, the place I was born in.
We'll talk to the old folks, for they're getting on,
And then tomorrow, we'll take a walk

Subject: RE: Lyr Req: My homeland...my Donegal From: Jim Dixon Date: 11 May 10 - 02:57 PM Lyrics to this song are posted at many places on the Internet, and the consensus seems to be that the title is HOME TO DONEGAL. Mick Flavin, Daniel O'Donnell, and a few others recorded it under that title. O'Donnell's recordings attribute the song to "P. Cavanagh" or "P. J. Cavanagh." One source, a blog, says that's Patsy Cavanagh. (In Ireland, Patsy seems to be a man's name; in the US, it's usually a woman's nickname—short for Patricia, e.g. Patsy Montana, Patsy Cline.) |
