Danny boy

They said nice things
About you in the paper today
But that doesn't take away
The look on your wife's face
Oh, Danny Boy, oh, Danny Boy
A thousand pipes
Are calling you
Home, home, home

Fallen heroes
Are only rising angels
But I prayed
We'd never have to see the day
Where you wouldn't see another day

The mailbox holds the letter
That tells me of you
Ten thousand tear drops
Just won't fill your shoes

Oh, Danny Boy, oh Danny Boy
Oh, Danny Boy, oh Danny Boy

A thousand pipes
Are calling you
Home, home, home

Fallen heroes
Are only rising angels
But I prayed
We'd never have to see the day
Where you wouldn't see another day
Where you wouldn't see another day
Where you wouldn't see another day

They said nice things
About you in the paper today
But that doesn't take away
The look on your wife's face
