Far Far From Home

We'll say farewell tomorrow

And we'll leave you for a while

For our music it will take us off

Far, far from this green isle

To sing in places we haven't been

And the ones that we well know

And we'll always meet the boys from home

Wherever we may go

We'll be singing songs of Ireland

To the folks in Camden Town

When we play guitars in Boston bars

Our friends will gather 'round

We'll be telling of the homeland

And where we've had to go

When we get our sights on Sydney's heights

We'll be far, far from home

Now we're grateful for our culture

And we're grateful for the laughs

And we take them with us 'round the world

They are our arts and crafts

We know that all our emigrants

They are so proud to be

A part of all the songs we sing

Wherever we may be

We'll be singing songs of Ireland

To the folks in Camden Town

When we play guitars in Boston bars

Our friends will gather 'round

We'll be telling of the homeland

And where we've had to go

When we get our sights on Sydney's heights

We'll be far, far from home

We're happy with our music

It's what we long to do

And although we sometimes leave this land

We still return to you

We're proud that we can take afar

And leave with them a while

A part of this fair land of ours

We call the Emerald Isle

We'll be singing songs of Ireland

To the folks in Camden Town

When we play guitars in Boston bars

Our friends will gather 'round

We'll be telling of the homeland

And where we've had to go

When we set our sights on Sydney's heights

We'll be far, far from home

When we set our sights on Sydney's heights

We'll be far, far from home
