There's a Fair Tomorrow
O Mammy won't you let me to the fair O dearest love don't plead with me
There's a fair tomorrow in County Clare Why should I care I won't be there
I've a little daughter and she's very young And she's in love with a cobbling man
You're not ten or eleven years old When you reach thirteen you'll be more mature
I'd rather have my cobbling man Than an army officer with his gold bands
There is many a maid who married young And lived in peace with her cobbling man

My heart's in the highlands My heart is not here My heart's in the highlands A-chasing the deer --Robert Burns
Thig crioch air an saoghal, ach mairidh gaol is cẹl. The world will pass away, but love and music last forever.
