Bold O'Donaghue

Here I am from Paddy's Land, the land of high renown I broke the hearts of all the girls for miles round Keady Town And when they hear that I'm a'wa they'll raise a hullabaloo When they hear about the handsome man they call O'Donoghue Chorus: For I'm the boy to please her and I'm the boy to tease her I'm the boy can squeeze her and I'll you what I'll do I'll court her like an Irishman, with a brogue and blarney to is me plan I wish me love was a red, red rose growin' on yon garden wall And me to be a dew drop and upon her brow I'd fall Perhaps now she might think of me as rather heavy dew No more to love that handsome man they call O'Donoghue Chorus I hear that Queen Victoria has a daughter fine and grand Perhaps she'll take it in to her head for to marry an Irishman And if I can only get a chance to have a word or two Perhaps she'll take a notion to the bold O'Donoghue Chorus
