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 transatlantic 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
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

And it nearly broke her kindly heart
When I went across the sea
But I was young in those
