Darren Crossey - Noreen Bawn lyrics
There's a spot in old Tirconnell With a wee house in the glen Where lives a widow's daughter Who charms the hearts of men She was winsome, pale and hearty Shy and graceful as a fawn Neighbors loved the widow's daughter Happy smiling, Noreen Bawn One day there came a letter With her passage paid to go To lands where the Missouri And the Mississippi flows So she bade farewell to Erin And next morning at the dawn Said a brokenhearted mother Said farewell to Noreen Bawn Many years that mother waited Till a morning at the door Sat a garnished looking lady Costly were the clothes she wore She said, Mother don't you know me She said, I've only got a cold But the purple spots upon her cheeks The tragic story told There's a graveyard in Tirconnell Where the weeping willows sway With a brokenhearted mother Crying o'er a lonely grave My Noreen, oh, my Noreen. been lonesome since you've gone Was the curse of emigration That left you here, my Noreen Bawn Was the curse of emigration That left you here, my Noreen Bawn |
