Dublin Daisies 1909

Where, tell me where
are the daisies half so fair
as in Paddy's Land?
That's my Daddy's Land
and he said to me:
"If 'tis beauties you would see
take a trip right down
to ould Dublin town:
Their eyes, and their sighs
win the hearts of all the bye's.
There's no lily fair
nor a rose so rare
that can equal one of
those sweet Dublin Daisies.

They will steal your hearts
those Dublin Daisies,
with their roguish smiles,
and eyes aglow.
With dear 'witching arts
they'll set you crazy
for they come from where
the shamrock grows.

They will steal your hearts
those Dublin Daisies,
with their roguish smiles,
and eyes aglow.
With dear 'witching arts
they'll set you crazy
for they come from where
the shamrock grows.

Hark! can they spark? Arrah!
Meet me after dark
'neath an Irish moon
you can learn to spoon
and kiss, talk of bliss,
faith and let me whisper this,
they're the kind that burn,
make your poor heart yearn,
and squeeze, if you please,
they're the colleens
that can tease.
Sure you'd want to say,
take my heart away,
and divide it up amongst
those Dublin Daisies.

They will steal your hearts
those Dublin Daisies,
with their roguish smiles,
and eyes aglow.
With dear 'witching arts
they'll set you crazy
for they come from where
the shamrock grows.

They will steal your hearts
those Dublin Daisies,
with their roguish smiles,
and eyes aglow.
With dear 'witching arts
they'll set you crazy
for they come from where
the shamrock grows.
