It's the Same Old Shillelagh
In the style of
Lyrics
oh fifty years ago me
father left old erin's shore
he landed here his shillalah in
hand and a divil a penny more
he got a job then got a wife
and then a family
and when he died and left
his old shillalah stick with me
sure it's the same old shillalah
me father brought from ireland
and a divil a man
was prouder than he
when he walked with
it in his hand
he lead the band
on paddy's day
and twirl it round his mitt
and divil if, if we'd laugh at it
poor dad would have a fit
sure with the same
old shillalah e father
could lick a dozen men
as fast as they'd get up
begorrah he'd knock
'em down again
and many's the time
he used it on me
to make me understand
the same old shillalah me
father brought from ireland
oh i'm goin' on
the police force
it's the only thing to do
instead of having
one night stick
begorrah i'll have two
if there's a fight i'll be all right
there's no one bothers me
because i have the old
shillalah me father gave to me
sure it's the same old
shillalah me father brought
from ireland
and a divil a man was prouder
than he when he walked with
it in his hand
he led the band
on paddy's day
and twirl it round his mitt
and divil if if we'd laugh at it
poor dad would have a fit
sure with the same old
shillalah me father could lick
a dozen men
as fast as they'd get up
begorrah he'd knock
'em down again
and many's the time he
used it on me
to make me understand
the same old shillalah me
father brought from ireland
