Oh, you can travel far, far round this wonderous world
And mysteries and wonders, you'll see
But I'll trade all this world for the place that I love
The place is dearest to me
All the riches on the Earth, sure, can never compare
To a friendly face or a smile
In your towns or your townsland, with your folks in their homes
There is nowhere that's dearer to me

[Chorus]
And it's Tyrone, that is my home
You'll always be with me wherever I roam
And it's Tyrone, Tyrone
I'll give you my heart and my home
It's the county of Tyrone

Oh, I love in a strange land I can never call home
And Australia has been good to me
Though my children were born here, I'll take them back home
My own dear county to see
Oh, I'll take you back home to the place of my birth
To my cottage and farm by the stream
And the little old schoolhouse where I went to school
Were the happiest days that I've seen

[Chorus]
And it's Tyrone, that is my home
You'll always be with me wherever I roam
And it's Tyrone, Tyrone
I'll give you my heart and my home
It's the county of Tyrone
Oh, I'll take you to Cookstown, to Ardboe by Lough Neagh
Where the fishermen sport and they toil
Then we'll cross the mountains at ol' Pomeroy
To Strabane on the banks of the Foyle
We'll wander the streets of brave Omagh town
Cross the hills of old Carrickmore
Of the story Dungannon, of legend and song
And it's there I will build you a home

[Chorus]
And it's Tyrone, that is my home
You'll always be with me wherever I roam
And it's Tyrone, Tyrone
I'll give you my heart and my home
It's the county of Tyrone
