Kitty the Rose of Kirea |
I’ve always been a rover and I’ve never had a care |
I’ve courted every lass I’ve met from Antrim down to Clare |
I’ve never felt the pain of love 'till cupid came one day |
Now every thought I have is on me Kitty of Kilrea! |
I love the rose of Kilrea and one of these days I’ll dance her away |
She’s stolen me heart, and never I’ll part with Kitty the rose of Kilrea |
Her hair is long and golden and her eyes are em’rald green |
She’s well put together from head to toe she’s every young man’s dream |
All of the boys are chasin' her and it’s time I made me play |
When I get bold I will propose to Kitty of Kilrea |
I love the rose of Kilrea and one of these days I’ll dance her away |
She’s stolen me heart, and never I’ll part with Kitty the rose of Kilrea |
In Belfast city I know a lass with money and with class |
She says she’s waitin' to marry me but I know it wouldn’t last |
I told her nice and gently that me heart would never stray |
From the rose of county Derry and me Kitty of Kilrea |
I love the rose of Kilrea and one of these days I’ll dance her away |
She’s stolen me heart, and never I’ll part with Kitty the rose of Kilrea |
Now that we are married we have children on our knee |
A girl just like her mummy and a boy that looks like me And when I hold her in me arms me heart still thumps away |
The king can have his riches, I’ve got Kitty of Kilrea |
I love the rose of Kilrea and one of these days I’ll dance her away |
She’s stolen me heart, and never I’ll part with Kitty the rose of Kilrea |
Yes, I love the rose of Kilrea and one of these days I’ll dance her away |
She’s stolen me heart, and never I’ll part with Kitty the rose of Kilrea |
