歌曲歌詞
It's of an Irishman I'm going to tell you
Free from Ireland sailed away
Where he was to he was not contended
Made up his mind for to go away
Early next morning the ship was sailing
Queenstown harbor Cobh of cork
Eight long days he was sailing over
Till he landed in New York
Up the street young paddy wandered
Each big building caught his eye
Looking up at a big shop window
A bottle of whisky he did spy
Into the bar young paddy entered
Called for a drink without delay
Give me a drop of that Irish whisky
Four big coppers I will pay
The landlord he jumped over the counter
Pay me down that bill he said
Paddy up with a big shillelagh
Laid him on the floor right dead
So the Yankees they came running
When they heard about the row
Trying to kill poor Irish paddy
Shouting out where is he now
Irishmen they followed after
Following without delay
Each of them with a big shillelagh
Made the Yankees run away
May god's success to his Irish people
Many's the country they have roamed
But their courage is far bolder
When they're far away from home
