in the style of JOHNNY CASH
I close my eyes and picture
The emeralds ofthe sea

From the fishing boats at Dingle

To the shores of Donaghadee

The emeralds ofthe sea

From the fishing boats at Dingle

To the shores of Donaghadee
I miss the river Shannon
And the folks at Skibbereen

The moorlands and the meddle

With their forty shades of green
And the folks at Skibbereen

The moorlands and the meddle

With their forty shades of green
In Tipperary town

And most of all I miss her lips

As soft as eiderdown
And most of all I miss her lips

As soft as eiderdown
Again I want to see and do
The things we've done and seen
Where the breeze's sweet as Shalimar

And there's fOIty shades of green
lwish that I could spend an hour
At Dublin's churching surf
I'd love to watch the farmers

Drain the bogs and spade the turf
I'd love to watch the farmers

Drain the bogs and spade the turf
0fthe straw the women glean

I'd walk from Cork to Lame to see
The forty shades of green
I'd walk from Cork to Lame to see
The forty shades of green
But most of all I miss a girl

In Tipperary town

And most of all I miss her lips

As soft as eiderdown
And most of all I miss her lips

As soft as eiderdown
Again I want to see and do
The things we've done and seen
Where the breeze's sweet as Shalimar

And there's fOIty shades of green
