[Verse 1]
I once knew a lad of this country
Who cherished the place he came from
Where it seemed like the sun shone on every tomorrow
And laughter was in everyone
[Verse 2]
And the smile that came over his sad face
When thoughts of it came to his mind
Would brighten dark corners in this lonely city
Whenever we failed to reply
[Chorus]
He said "I'm from Bailieboro
Land of my childhood dreams
Bailieboro
Calling me home
Bailieboro
One day I'll take you there
We're close as the shore and the sea
Bailieboro and me."
[Verse 3]
He talked on the heathery hillsides
Where the wild duck and pheasant would fly
With his dog and his gun, he would stroll up an evening
Away from the world rushing by
I once knew a lad of this country
Who cherished the place he came from
Where it seemed like the sun shone on every tomorrow
And laughter was in everyone
[Verse 2]
And the smile that came over his sad face
When thoughts of it came to his mind
Would brighten dark corners in this lonely city
Whenever we failed to reply
[Chorus]
He said "I'm from Bailieboro
Land of my childhood dreams
Bailieboro
Calling me home
Bailieboro
One day I'll take you there
We're close as the shore and the sea
Bailieboro and me."
[Verse 3]
He talked on the heathery hillsides
Where the wild duck and pheasant would fly
With his dog and his gun, he would stroll up an evening
Away from the world rushing by
