For as long as I can remember, I was sung this song, I seem to have an extra verse though...
Coleen's eyes are irish,
Coleen's eyes are blue,
Coleen's got eyes like her daddy
and they are irish too
See how she plays Scrambles the floor Watching the sunbeam That shines through the door And nobody knows how I adore
Daddy's baby girl
Now daddy's gone to heaven
Gone to paradise
Leaving his dear little Coleen With beautiful blue Irish eyes

Lyrics to Baby's eyes are irishNEW by: Jo Gilby
I had this song sung to me from a very young child.I have sung this as a lullaby to all my children and now all my grandchildren My grandchildren all know the lullaby word for word Baby's eys are irish
Baby's eyes are blue
Baby's eyes are like his dads and they were irish too
But daddys gone and left us to live in Paradise
Mummy sees her daddy's smile in her babies irish eyes

I learnt this song from a resident that I care for, and we always sing it together, but it goes differently...
Baby's eyes are irish
Baby's eyes are blue
baby is like his daddy
for daddy's irish too.
Now daddy's gone to heaven
Gone to paradise
Leaving his dear little baby
with a pear of irish eyes <3

My mum sang it too! by: Anonymous
My dad was a blue-eyed Irishman, which I inherited, so my mum used to sing this song to me. Here's how I know it:
Baby's eyes are Irish, Baby's eyes are blue. Baby's eyes are like his dad's, For they were Irish too.
Daddy's gone away now To live in Paradise, But mummy sees him every day In baby's Irish eyes.

Here are some of the words by: Fergus
The version my mother sang to me back in the early 1950s went
Baby's eyes are Irish, baby's eyes are blue, Baby's eyes are like daddy's, daddy's were Irish too. Daddy's gone to heaven, gone to paradise, Leaving only his baby, with his shining Irish eyes.
