An Irish State of Mind

An Irish State of Mind July 20, 2013 In a New York bar, pretty far, with Donegal on my mind Missing my country, miss my friends, in an Irish state of mind Donegal town, Bundoran, Killybegs to Malin Head I miss them all that’s for sure, that’s what an old man said This is my new town; don’t know if I’ll stay The Donegal feeling is with me every other day I left sweet Gweedore behind me on that Irish shore Sometimes I dream I’m home, who could ask for anything more Just for a little while to walk an Irish mile To be with them all, that brings a smile Some future day I’ll be on my way to kiss that Blarney stone When that day comes I’ll know for sure I’m home In a New York bar, pretty far, with Donegal on my mind Missing my country, miss my friends, in an Irish state of mind Gerrard McGeachy
