Elvis Presley Danny Boy
Written by Frederic Edward Weatherly in 1913 with music adapted from the Irish song "Londonderry Air". Elvis recorded it the night of February 5-6, 1976 at Graceland. It was one of the songs played at his funeral.
Oh Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling
From glen to glen and down the mountain side
The summer's gone and all the roses dying
'Tis you, 'tis you must go and I must bye
But come ye back when summer's in the meadow
Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow
And I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow
Oh Danny boy, oh Danny boy I love you so
But if he comes and all the roses dying
And I am dead, as dead I well may be
He'll come and find the place where I am lying
And kneel and say an ave there for me
And I shall feel, how soft you tread above me
And then my grave will richer, sweeter be
For you will bend and tell me that you love me
And I shall rest in peace until you come to me

Can't listen to this song without thinking of my dad, i miss him so much and i don't think anyone can sing this song as good as Elvis, BRILLIANT.

Ask bono vox or any other vocalist to sing it. I´m just joking, everybody knows that these singers are trash.

Such a deep, rich voice Elvis possessed in the 70's. His version of this song gave me goose-bumps...and basically was awe inspiring. Thank you, Jackie, for continuing to bring such wonderful songs such as this from Elvis!
