Must have listened over a hundered times and still can't work them out. It's called Don't Wake Me Up Till We Touch Down In Shannon (Written By Walter Cunningham) sung on this video by country singer Robert Mizzell. This is all I can get from chorus. "Don't wake me up till we touch down in Shannon, Let my homesick heart rest for a while, No ???, Parking ??? or ????? I just can't wait to walk an Irish mile. If you can help, I will really appreciate it Thanks |

If route 66 passed through Kilarney If a Mississippi river boat churned waves in Dublin Bay If they had a rodeo down there in Bandon This ramblin fool never would have strayed Don't wake me up till we touch down in Shannon, Let my homesick heart rest for a while, No ???, Parking ??? or ????? I just can't wait to walk an Irish mile They told me the grass would be greener But it was not as green as the grass I left behind I headed for Montana, but I longed for Buncrana I couldn't get old Ireland off my mind (Chorus x 2) Don't wake me up till we touch down in Shannon, Let my homesick heart rest for a while, No ???, Parking ??? or ????? I just can't wait to walk an Irish mile You know I just can't wait to walk an Irish mile |

30 Jun 10 - 06:34 AM (#2937139) Subject: Lyr Add: DON'T WAKE ME UP TILL WE TOUCH DOWN IN SH From: GUEST Thanks a lot my friend. Much appreciated. 1. If Route 66 passed through Kilarney, If a Mississippi riverboat churned waves in Dublin Bay, If they had a rodeo down there in Bandon, This ramblin' fool never would have strayed. CHORUS: Don't wake me up till we touch down in Shannon. Let my homesick heart rest for a while. No freeways, parkin' lots, or drive-ins, I just can't wait to walk an Irish mile. 2. They told me the grass would be greener, But it was not as green as the grass I left behind. I headed for Montana, but I longed for Buncrana. I couldn't get old Ireland off my mind. (CHORUS X 2) You know I just can't wait to walk an Irish mile. |
