Christmas In Killarney - The holly green the ivy green

the holly green, the ivy green

the prettiest picture you’ve ever seen

is christmas in killarney

with all of the folks from home

it’s nice you know, to kiss your beau

while cuddling under the mistletoe

and santa claus, you know of course

is one of the boys from home

the door is always open

the neighbors pay a call

and father john, before he’s gone

will bless the house and all

our hearts are light

our spirits bright

we’ll celebrate our joy tonight

it’s christmas in killarney

with all of the folks from home

the holly green, the ivy green

the prettiest picture you’ve ever seen

is christmas in killarney

with all of the folks from home

it’s nice you know, to kiss your beau

while cuddling under the mistletoe

and santa claus, you know of course

is one of the boys from home

we’ll decorate the christmas tree

while all the family’s here

around a roaring fire

we’ll raise a cup of cheer

there’s gifts to bring

and songs to sing

and laughs to make the rafters ring
