An American landed on Erin's green isle
He gazed at Killarney with rapturous smile
How can I buy it he said to his guide
I'll tell you how with a smile he replied
How can you buy all the stars in the skies
How can you buy two blue Irish eyes
How can you purchase a fond mother's sighs
How can you buy Killarney
Nature bestowed all her gifts with a smile
The emerald the shamrock the Blarney
When you can buy all these wonderful things
Then you can buy Killarney
Such a wonderful landscape you never have seen
A jewel so rare 'twould befit any queen
Pride of old Erin a joy to behold
Heaven on earth far more precious than gold
How can you buy all the stars in the skies
How can you buy two blue Irish eyes
How can you purchase a fond mother's sighs
How can you buy Killarney
Nature bestowed all her gifts with a smile
The emerald the shamrock and the Blarney
When you can buy all these wonderful things
Then you can buy Killarney
Then you can buy Killarney
