Green and Red of Mayo

Oh the Green and Red of Mayo
 I can see it still
 Its soft and craggy boglands
 Its tall majestic hills
 Where the ocean kisses Ireland
 And the waves carress its shore
 Oh the feelin' it came over me
 To stay forever more
 Forever more
 ♪
 From its rollin' coastal waters
 I can see Croagh Patrick's peak
 Where one Sunday every Summer
 The pilgrims climb the reek
 Where Saint Patrick in it's solitude
 Looked down across Clew Bay
 And with the ringin' of his bell
 Called the faithful there to pray
 There to pray
 ♪
 Oh take me to Clare Island
 The home of Granuaile
 It's waters harbour fishes
 From the herring to the whale
 And now I must depart it
 And reality is plain
 May the time not pass so slowly
 'Fore I set sail again
 Set sail again
