erin tennessee - daniel o'donnell lyrics

i left ireland and crossed the atlantic
at home once more there was no work to find.
with a heavy heart i had to make that journey
with thoughts of friends and loved ones on my mind.
i landed in new york then traveled southwards
’cause city life was never meant for me.
i think it must’ve been god’s plan to lead me
to a little town called erin tennessee
there i felt i was back in my homeland
far across the sea
oh i found a little bit of ireland
way down in tennessee
instrumental
now very soon i met a pretty lady
she set my heart a whirlin’ all could see
i wanted her to be my one and only
my southern belle from erin tennessee
as we walked the hills i told her of my homeland
far across the sea
i found love in that little bit of ireland
called erin tennessee
instrumental
we settled on green rollin pastures
it was there that she took my hand
and we lived and we loved and we raised our children
far away from my own native land
now i often tell them of my homeland
far across the sea
but we have a little bit of ireland
here in erin, tennessee
yes we have a little bit of ireland
here in erin tenneseee
instrumental
