My baby, he left me
Left me for a ticket to ireland
My baby, he left me
Left me for a ticket to ireland

I told my girl my baby’s going home
And I'm afraid of being all alone
She said, shit happens, keep your chin up girl
Soon you’ll meet a fella who will rock your world
But I love him, so much dear
He’s involve with somebody else
I want him, so much dear
How can I go on by myself

My baby, he left me
Left me for a ticket to ireland
My baby, he left me
Left me for a ticket to ireland

I told my mama and she said to me
It will happen if it’s meant to be
I told my daddy, he’s the only one
He said, there’s plenty more fish in the sea to come
Oh mama, I love him
He’s involve with somebody else
Oh daddy, I want him
How can I go on by myself

My baby, he left me
Left me for a ticket to ireland
My baby, he left me
Left me for a ticket to ireland
Ah na na, ah na na
He’s involve with someone from ireland
Ah na na, ah na na
I hope he comes back from ireland

I’ve been told my baby’s doing fine
A little better than this heart of mine
It’s sad I know, that’s the way it goes
And if he hears this song then I hope he knows
That I love him, so much dear
He’s involve with somebody else
I want him, so much dear
How can I go on by myself

My baby, he left me
Left me for a ticket to ireland
My baby, he left me
Left me for his hometown in ireland
Ah na na, ah na na
He’s involve with someone from ireland
Ah na na, ah na na
I hope he comes back from ireland
Ah na na, ah na na
He’s involve with someone from ireland
Ah na na, ah na na
I hope he comes back from ireland
