notes: From the Walt Disney Movie “Darby O’Gill and the Little People”, by Lawrence Edward Watkin & Oliver Wallace. It is performed, in the movie, by Sean Connery and Janet Munro. I am told that this performance was cut into a single in 1959, and that it charted at number one. |

Pretty Irish Girl
Have you ever seen the seagulls a-flying on to Heaven
Or the crimson sails on Galway Bay the fishermen unfurl
Oh, the Earth is filled with beauty and its gathered all together
In the form and face and dainty grace of a pretty Irish girl
Oh, she is my dear, my darling one
Her eyes so sparkling full of fun
No other, no other can match the likes of her
Oh, she is my dear, my darling one
My smiling and beguiling one
I love the ground she walks upon
My darling Irish girl |
