Irish Linene

<br>(lyrics by James Seals; music by James Seals &amp; Dash Crofts, 1969)<br>From the album YEAR OF SUNDAY (1972). <br><br>Met a girl in Lenningrad, she wasn`t bad and I might add<br>I found it such a pleasure to be near her, just to hear her call my name.<br>She was so fair, and she wore Irish linen in her hair.<br><br>She lived in the valley wide, a country ride from my side.<br>I spent most of my time thinking of her. How I loved her, such a shame.<br>I`m not there to touch the Irish linen in her hair.<br><br>Irish linen, memories not bad, green and red make me sad.<br>Irish linen, I would be so glad, green and red, <br>I could have had her for my own.
