I don't come from Galway or the wild Atlantic way But sometime on my journey I'm gonna be there someday And I'l stand upon the hillside and il see your name in stone That little piece of heaven, that you once called your home I guess I always knew it There was Irish in my heart When I reached for my family tree I knew I was a part Of the ones that's gone before me, O I'l hold my head with pride There's a little piece of Ireland in me I'l never hide There's a little piece of Ireland, O that I will never hide I'l be proud to stand with my fellow man Together side by side We will raise a glass to those long pasts As we sing an Irish song And I'l feel a part of Ireland I'v been waiting for so long Now i'm growing older here in my Boston home I'm proud to say that Ireland's in my blood No matter where I roam Now you can stand here at my gravestone When god he calls me home I can rest in peace now knowing I have Irish in my bones There's a little piece of Ireland, O that I will never hide I'l be proud to stand with my fellow man Together side by side We will raise a glass to those long pasts As we sing an Irish song And I'l feel a part of Ireland I'v been waiting for so long I'l be a part of Ireland, I'v been waiting for so long
