of how Ireland got its name?
I'll tell you so you'll understand
from whence old Ireland came.
No won der that we're proud
of that dear land across the sea.
A little bit of heaven fell
And when the angels found it,
for it looked so sweet and fair,
they said, suppose we leave
Leave it, for it looks so peaceful there.
So they sprinkled it with powder,
just to make the shamrocks cool.
It's the only place you'll find them,
And they dotted it with silver
to make its lake so grand.
An d when they had it finished,
sure they called it Ireland.
Oh, they've sprinkled it with soda.
Just to make the shamrocks grow
It's the only place you'll find them
And they dotted it with silver
To make its lake so grand
And when they had it in it
Shall they call it our land?
