Looking for a girl with green eyes My dark rosaleen is my only colleen That georgie knows best But van is the man Starvation once again Drinking whiskey in the jar-o Synges playboy of the western world As shaw, sean I was born and reared there Where the mountains of mourne come down to the sea Is such a long, long way from tipperary
