I’m Paddy Magee, sir, from Ballinahee, sir |
| [00:05.430] |
In an illigant ship I come over the say; |
| [00:08.646] |
Father Donahoe sent me, my passage he lent me– |
| [00:11.724] |
Sure, only for that, I’d a walked all the way! |
| [00:14.889] |
He talked of America’s freedom and glory; |
| [00:18.019] |
“Begorra,” says I, “that’s the counthry for me!” |
| [00:21.232] |
So, to ind a long story, I’ve now come before ye |
| [00:24.258] |
To give the opinions of Paddy Magee |
| [00:30.238] |
Whin Ireland was needing, and famine was feeding |
| [00:32.905] |
And thousands were dying for something to ate |
| [00:36.093] |
‘Twas America’s daughters that sent over the waters |
| [00:39.418] |
The ships that were loaded with corn and whate: |
| [00:42.456] |
And Irishmen sure will forever remember |
| [00:45.629] |
The vessels that carried the flag of the free; |
| [00:48.799] |
And the land that befriended, they’ll die to defend it |
| [00:52.114] |
And that’s the opinions of Paddy Magee |
| [01:00.619] |
I’m sure none are bowlder the musket to showlder |
| [01:03.977] |
Enlisting to learn the sojering trade– |
| [01:07.050] |
With Corcoran fighting, in Meagher delighting |
| [01:10.178] |
They swell up the ranks of the Irish Brigade |
| [01:13.257] |
With Columbia defying the bould British Lion |
| [01:16.528] |
The sons of ould Ireland forever shall be; |
| [01:19.561] |
I’ll have no intervention, if that’s their intention– |
| [01:22.818] |
And that’s the opinions of Paddy Magee |
| [01:52.806] |
John Bull, ye ould divil |
| [01:54.486] |
Ye’d betther keep civil! |
| [01:56.024] |
Remimber the story of ‘Seventy-six |
| [01:59.061] |
Whin Washington glorious he slathered the Tories; |
| [02:02.330] |
Away from Columbia you then cut your sticks |
| [02:05.359] |
And if once again you’re inclined to be meddling |
| [02:08.578] |
There’s a city that’s called New Orleans, d’ye see |
| [02:11.703] |
Where Hickory Jackson he drove off the Saxon– |
| [02:14.881] |
Now that’s the opinions of Paddy Magee |
| [02:23.478] |
Though now we’re in trouble, it’s only a bubble |
| [02:26.833] |
We’ll soon make the foes of the Union retire; |
| [02:29.954] |
Foreign knaves that would meddle had better skedaddle |
| [02:33.170] |
For them Uncle Sam has a taste of Greek fire! |
| [02:36.289] |
They’ll find if they try it, Columbia’s a giant |
| [02:39.606] |
And victory perched on the flag of the free; |
| [02:42.404] |
For the American nation can whale all creation– |
| [02:45.575] |
Now that’s the opinions of Paddy Magee |
| [02:51.477] |
Now that’s the opinions of Paddy Magee |
