Three Leaf Shamrock
In a dock a ship was anchored
On a bright St. Patrick's day
On the quay a lass was sighing
For her lover going away
In her hand she held an emblem
And its parting leaves were three
And her parting words were "Darlin'
Look at these and think of me"
Three leaf shamrock I adore thee
Your three leaves I long to see
When there's brighter days in Ireland
I'll come home and marry thee
(Break)
Just before the ship had started
As she laid her hand on mine
Just before that we had parted
She looked with loving eyes so kind
To my coat she pinned an emblem
And its parting leaves were three
And her parting words were "Darlin'
Look at these and think of me"
Chorus
And her parting words were "Darlin'
Look at these and think of me
