The ocean's blue waters wash by the shore
Of that dear land of shamrock, where thou doth abide
Waiting the day when I'll call thee my bride

True to the boy who would die now for you
My heart is now bleeding to it's innermost core

Eileen Alannah, Agus A Stor
Soon I'll be back to the colleen I adore

Some lyrics a bit different (spellings), but they too have used "it's" when I think they mean to use "its".
