Bridie Gallagher, the Girl from Donegal - A Mothers Love is a Blessing Lyrics: An Irish boy was leaving Leaving his own native home, Crossing the broad Atlantic waves, Once more he wants to roam, And as he was leaving his mother, While swalking or the Quay, He threw his arms around her waist And this to her did say: Chorus: A mothers love is a blessing, No matter where you roam. Keep her while shes living, Cos youll miss her when shes gone. Love her as in childhood, Though hen feeble, old and grey, For youll never miss a mothers love til shes buried beneath the clay. And as the years grow onwards, Ill settle down in life, And Ill choose a nice young Irish girl, And take her for my wife. And as the kids grow older, Theyll play around my knee And Ill teach them the very same lesson That my mother taught to me: Chorus: A mothers love is a blessing, No matter where you roam. Keep her while shes living, Cos youll miss her when shes gone. Love her as in childhood, Though hen feeble, old and grey, For youll never miss a mothers love til shes buried beneath the clay.
