The Seekers
"Danny Boy"


Oh Danny Boy the pipes the pipes are calling
From glen to glen and down the mountainside
The summer s gone and all the roses falling
It's you it's you must go and I must bide

But come ye back when summer's in the meadow
Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow
It's I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow
Oh Danny Boy oh Danny Boy I love you so

But when ye come and all the flowers are dying
If I am dead as dead I well may be
He'll come and find the place where I am lying
And kneel and say an Ave there for me

But come ye back when summer s in the meadow
Or when the valley s hushed and white with snow
It's I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow
Oh Danny Boy oh Danny Boy I love you so
