Bold O'donahue - The Clancy Brothers

Well here I am from Paddy's land

A land of high renown

I've broke the hearts of all the girls

For miles round Keady town

And when they hear that I'm awa

They'll raise a hullabaloo

When they hear about that handsome

Lad they call Jack Donahue

For I'm the boy to squeeze her

And I'm the boy to tease her

I'm the boy that can please her ach

An' I'll tell you what I'll do

I'll court her like an Irishman

Wi' me brogue and blarney too is me plan

With the holligan rolligan swolligan

Molligan bold O'Donahue

I wish my love was a red

Red rose growing on yon garden wall

And me to be a dewdrop and

Upon her brow I'd fall

Perhaps now she might think of

Me as a rather heavy dew

And no more she'd love that

Handsome lad they call O'Donahue

For I'm the boy to squeeze her

And I'm the boy to tease her

I'm the boy that can please her ach

An' I'll tell you what I'll do

I'll court her like an Irishman

Wi' me brogue and blarney too is me plan

With the holligan rolligan swolligan

Molligan bold O'Donahue

Well I hear that Queen Victoria

Has a daughter fine and grand

Perhaps she'd take it into her

Head for to marry an Irishman

And if I could only get the

Chance to have a word or two

I'm sure she'd take a notion

To the bold O'Donahue

For I'm the boy to squeeze her

And I'm the boy to tease her

I'm the boy that can please her ach

An' I'll tell you what I'll do

I'll court her like an Irishman

Wi' me brogue and blarney too is me plan

With the holligan rolligan swolligan

Molligan bold O'Donahue
