You've heard them sing about the hills of Donegal

The fields somewhere in Galway and the bushes in Ty rone

The lakes down in Kerry and always without a frown

But the one place I never hear speak is about your County Down

In the Mountains Of Mourne sweeping down to the sea

On a fine summer's day no better place to be

Strangford Lough on Sunday looking across the bay

If Heaven were just half like this I'd like to go to day

Take me back to County Down where once we used to be

Living in God's own country right beside the sea

Looking at the bog tonight gleaming in the harbour light

County Down is calling what do you say

If Heaven were just half like this I'd like to go to day

I remember growing up there with my Mom and my Dad

It never seemed so good back then until you miss it now

So far away from home I know I'm coming back to stay

If Heaven were just half like this I'd like to go today

Take me back to County Down where once we used to be

Living in God's own country right beside the sea

Looking at the bog tonight gleaming in the harbour light

County Down is calling what do you say

If Heaven were just half like this I'd like to go today

If Heaven were just half like this I'd like to go today
