Little Piece Of Ireland

I don't come from Galway

Or the wild Atlantic way

But sometime on my journey

I'm gonna be there someday

And I'll stand upon the hillside

And I'll see your name in stone

That little piece of heaven

That you once called your home

I guess I always knew it

There was Irish in my heart

When I reached for my family tree

I knew I was a part

Of the ones that's gone before me

Oh, I'll hold my head with pride

There's a little piece of Ireland

In me I'll never hide

There's a little piece of Ireland

Oh, that I will never hide

I'll be proud to stand with my fellow man

Together side by side

We will raise a glass to those long past

As we sing an Irish song

And I'll feel part of Ireland

I've been waiting for so long

Now I'm growing older

Here in my Boston home

I'm proud to say Ireland's in my blood

No matter where I roam

Now you can stand here at my gravestone

When God, He calls me home

I can rest in peace now knowing

I have Irish in my bones

There's a little piece of Ireland

Oh, that I will never hide

I'll be proud to stand with my fellow man

Together side by side

We will raise a glass to those long past

As we sing an Irish song

And I'll feel part of Ireland

I've been waiting for so long

I'll be a part of Ireland
