Coming Back To Miltown Lyrics And Chords

Coming Back To Miltown Song Lyrics. Collette O Sullivan - Kilfenora Ceili Band and the singer is P.J. Murrihy, this one was sent in to me from Patrick Burke, from the album Irish Folk Favorites transatlan​tic records. In My Father's House Lyrics is another of the top songs that P.J. Murrihy sings, but there's a rake more besides.

As I sit and dream in Boston
Beneath a stary sky.
Memories come crowding of,
The time I was a Boy.
A’avale, but Paddy Lad I through,
The wide wide streets of home.
A carefree lad with friends galore.
I was a fool to roam.


(Chorus)


But now I’m coming back to Miltown
In a week i will be there
Back with the Folks i love so well
In my dear old County Clare
I love the friendly neighbors
And I’ll drink with all the boys
I want to see the sadness
Leave my dear Mothers eyes


2

My mother she had raised me
On her own since i was three
And it nearly broke her kindly heart
When I went across the sea
But I was young in those
 far off days
All I wanted was to roam.
I didn't mind the heartbreak
I caused to those back home.


(Chorus as above)


3

Near Quilty theres a Beauty
Her name it is Eilleen
And I know that she’s waiting
There for me.
So no more I’ll go a roaming
In Miltown I would stay
And I’ll wed my dark eyed Beauty
Right away.


(Chorus)
So now I’m coming back
 to Miltown
In a week i will be there
Back with the Folks i love
so well
In my dear own county
Clare
I love the friendly neighbors
And I’ll drink with all the boys
I want to see the sadness leave my dear Mothers eyes
