lyrics

Four immigrants are talking home boasting to their friends
Comparing stories each the best legends never end
Our next migration to the Isle across that stormy sea
Our land is near our friends are dear home will always be

The stories flying high tales of conquest and the strong
A table full of memories the wise are never wrong
It’s great to be back in the land you couldn’t wait to leave
With pride and grace a wiser man we’re learning how to weave

I’m going to Arklow, maybe Avoca
Where the road winds through the valley
And our rivers finally free
I’m going to Arklow

Founded by the Vikings the water pleased them well
With centuries of battles past they’ve had their share of hell
Nineteen arches separating fairies from the flock
The handmade bridge with shiny plaque more accolades than Knock

I’m going to Arklow, maybe Avoca
Where the road winds through the valley
And our rivers finally free
I’m going to Arklow

The Tyrell boys they built them well the Ascard and the Moth
The Arklow girls are dancing as the sailors tie the knot
For potters all around the world that logo so endeared
This is our little east coast town we boast for all is dear

I’m going to Arklow, maybe Avoca
Where the road winds through the valley
And our rivers finally free
I’m going to Arklow
