'My Heart Is in Ireland' (Brian Warfield) Performed by The Wolfe Tones | Siamsa Cois Laoi, Cork | 1986 In the East End of London, I met an old man. He kept a bar called the Horses and Tram. My parents were Irish. They loved that dear land, The Cockney, he smiled, then he shook my old hand. My heart is in Ireland, it's there I long to be. Her hills and her valleys are calling to me. Though born here in this land, my heart is in Ireland. The land of the old folks is calling to me. Near a coal mine
