about

This tune is about the great country of Ireland and Brian's girlfriend. It also features a cover of the traditional song, Tell Me Ma.

lyrics

I remember all the times we shared
Walking through the mall down there
The moon climbs and you shine the brightest tonight

I can't imagine what you'd say
If we had just met yesterday
But months fly by with you in my life

Mamma lay down beside me
Outside by the oak tree
And you can say you love me
Stay with and watch the bees

And birds they flyin' through the sky
Oh why oh why can't I take you with me
To the land with Whiskey In The Valley

I remember walking through the fields
I'd dance in pubs to jigs and reels
the sun's up and you jump
The Murder Of Crows

Are gigging in O'Donoghue's
You'll belt the words and drink the booze
Just take my hand and I'll show you the land

Mamma lay down beside me
Outside by the oak tree
And you can say you love me
Stay with and watch the bees

And birds they flyin' through the sky
Oh why oh why can't I take you with me
To the land with Whiskey In The Valley

Tell me ma when I go home
The boys won't leave the girls alone
They pull my hair, and stole my comb
But that's all right till I go home
She is handsome, she is pretty
She is the belle of Dublin city
She is a-courting one two three
Please, would you tell me who is she
Albert Mooney says he loves her
All the boys are fighting for
Knock on the door and ring a bell
Sayin' oh my true love, are you well
Out she comes as white as snow
With rings on her fingers, bells on her toes
Old Jenny Murray says she will die
If she doesn't get the fella with the roving eye

Mamma lay down beside me
Outside by the oak tree
And you can say you love me
Stay with and watch the bees

And birds they flyin' through the sky
Oh why oh why can't I take you with me
To the land with Whiskey In The Valley
