I'm sitting in a bar room in Chicago all alone
Looking at the rain coming down
Put another nickel in the jukebox on the wall
And I'll play a few old songs from way back home
The record started playing and it mentioned Donegal
Then it gave a mention to Tyrone
The words don't mean nothing when you're sitting in a bar
When any town in Ireland would be home
Any town in Ireland would be home
Just a cottage by the river all alone
I'm sitting in a bar room in Chicago Sunday morning
When any town in Ireland would be home
Another record mentioned Galway and Mayo
Roscommon, Dublin and Athlone
The bartender asked me what town I came from
I said any town in Ireland would be home
Any town in Ireland would be home
Just a cottage by the river all alone
I'm sitting in a bar room in Chicago Sunday morning
When any town in Ireland would be home
Any town in Ireland would be home
Just a cottage by the river all alone
I'm sitting in a bar room in Chicago Sunday morning
When any town in Ireland would be home
