Irish Linen - Seals & Crofts

Met a girl in Lenningrad, she wasn’t bad and I might add

I found it such a pleasure to be near her, just to hear her call my name

She was so fair, and she wore Irish linen in her hair

She lived in the valley wide, a country ride from my side

I spent most of my time thinking of her.

How I loved her, such a shame

I’m not there to touch the Irish linen in her hair

Irish linen, memories not bad, green and red make me sad

Irish linen, I would be so glad, green and red

I could have had her for my own
