Verse
G# D#
I’m Paddy Magee, sir, from Ballinahee, sir
G# D# G#
In an illigant ship I come over the say;
G# D#
Father Donahoe sent me, my passage he lent me–
G# D# G#
Sure, only for that, I’d a walked all the way!
[Refrain]
G# D# C# G#
He talked of America’s freedom and glory;
G# D# C# D#
“Begorra,” says I, “that’s the country for me!”
G# D# C# G#
So, to ind a long story, I’ve now come before ye
G# D# G#
To give the opinions of Paddy Magee
[Verse 2]
G# D#
Whin Ireland was needing, and famine was feeding
G# D# G#
And thousands were dying for something to ate
G# D#
‘Twas America’s daughters that sent over the waters
G# D# G#
The ships that were loaded with corn and whate:
[Refrain]
G# D# C# G#
And Irishmen sure will forever remember
G# D# C# D#
The vessels that carried the flag of the free;
G# D# C# G#
And the land that befriended, they’ll die to defend it
G# D# G#
And that’s the opinions of Paddy Magee
[Verse 3]
G# D#
I’m sure none are bowlder the musket to showlder
G# D# G#
Enlisting to learn the sojering trade–
G# D#
With Corcoran fighting, in Meagher delighting
G# D# G#
They swell up the ranks of the Irish Brigade
[Refrain]
G# D# C# G#
With Columbia defying the bould British Lion
G# D# C# D#
The sons of ould Ireland forever shall be;
G# D# C# G#
I’ll have no intervention, if that’s their intention–
G# D# G#
And that’s the opinions of Paddy Magee
[Verse 4]
G# D#
John Bull, ye ould divil, ye’d betther keep civil!
G# D# G#
Remimber the story of ‘Seventy-six
G# D#
Whin Washington glorious he slathered the Tories;
G# D# G#
Away from Columbia you then cut your sticks
[Refrain]
G# D# C# G#
And if once again you’re inclined to be meddling
G# D# C# D#
There’s a city that’s called New Orleans, d’ye see
G# D# C# G#
Where Hickory Jackson he drove off the Saxon–
G# D# G#
Now that’s the opinions of Paddy Magee
[Verse 5]
G# D#
Though now we’re in trouble, it’s only a bubble
G# D# G#
We’ll soon make the foes of the Union retire;
G# D#
Foreign knaves that would meddle had better skedaddle
G# D# G#
For them Uncle Sam has a taste of Greek fire!
[Refrain]
G# D# C# G#
They’ll find if they try it, Columbia’s a giant
G# D# C# D#
And victory perched on the flag of the free;
G# D# C# G#
For the American nation can whale all creation–
G# D# G#
Now that’s the opinions of Paddy Magee
[Coda]
G# D# G#
Now that’s the opinions of Paddy Magee
