Lyrics:

(Michael Carr - Jimmy Kennedy)

Did your mother come from Ireland 'cause there's something in you Irish
Will you tell me where you get those Irish eyes
And before she left Killarney did your mother kiss the Blarney
'Cause your little touch of brogue you can't disguise.

Oh, I wouldn't be romancin' I can almost see you dancin'
While the Kerry pipers play
Sure and maybe we'll be sharin' in the shamrock you'll be wearin'
On the next St. Patrick's Day.
Did your mother come from Ireland 'cause there's something in you Irish
And that bit of Irish steals my heart away.

--- Instrumental ---

And that bit of Irish steals my heart away...
