I Remember Millstreet

I remember Millstreet as a welcoming Town Which was one of it's many just claims to renown As some of it's people are famous and known far and wide Beyond the borders of Duhallow's green countryside It has been thirty years since i lived near the Town of Millstreet By the old rushy fields where the waterways meet And such beautiful memories of there i retain That until the day i do die with me will remain Years ago in Millstreet Town and Parish i felt one of their own But to many today there i would not be known From the Millstreet i knew it would be different there today Since from there i have been quite a long time away In Claraghatlea near Millstreet Town i first saw light of day and grew into a man Though far south of there i may live out my life span.
