HOMELAND THE BEST LAND

lTwas summer, when we hied away To Britain's golden shore-

To see once more historic rights. All steeped in ancient lore.

England has her winding Thames And castles rich and grand.

All seemed so fair and lovely Within Her Royal Command.

Scotland has the Highland Hills With heather sweetly scented. Robert Burns their poet bard Those hills so oft frequented.

The Irish have their Emerald Isle Where St. Patrick's shamrocka

grow.

Threel leaves each stem so plainly s ow.

The fields are green and fertile

Through which the Shannon flows, There you'll see the Blarney Stone Near the Tower of Blarney Grover.

We went to county Antrlm- The Giants Causeway there to see- We wished we'd meet a leprechaun To hear its ancient history.

We did not meet the little man To hear his tales of yore . so to Canada we sailed away Bidding bye to Britain's shore.

Canada has greahattracilons Throughout her vast expanse - Mountains. lakes and rivers Its rolling plains enhance.

Niagara Falls are beautiful.

It fills the heart with wonder To watch the glittering torrents Gushlng down and under.

The tinkling music of the Falls Entoned with wedding halls To the many who there visit The sweetest stories ever tella.
