Story behind the song
A favorite with Barbershop quartets, this was one of the first Irish ballads to come out of Tin Pan Alley. Other than "Danny Boy", this is probably the premier Irish ballad of all time.
Lyrics
My wild Irish rose, the sweetest flow'r that grows You may search ev'rywhere, but none can compare With my wild Irish rose. My wild Irish rose, the dearest flow'r that grows And some day for my sake, she may let me take The bloom from my wild Irish Rose
