[Intro]
One, two, three, four
[Verse 1]
I remember Daddy playing on the violin
Jigs and reels that he brought from Ireland
And I'm the first born in America, my friend
[Verse 2]
I have never been there but someday I'll take a trip
Across the ocean on a big long silver ship
Hear them sing those songs
I learned from Mama's lips
[Chorus]
I just close my eyes and I can almost see
Those shamrock hills and those forty shades of green
And the roots that tie me to a land I've never known
Are calling me home, are calling me home
[Verse 3]
Sun shines through my window here in Tennessee
God sure made this a pretty place to be
But sometimes
It just don't feel like home to me
[Chorus]
I just close my eyes and I can almost see
Those shamrock hills and those forty shades of green
And the roots that tie me to a land I've never known
Are calling me home, are calling me home
