The Dubliners - Bold O'donaghue lyrics

Your rating:

[G]Well, here I am from Paddy's land, a[C] land of high 
renown
I've[D] broke the hearts of all the girls for miles 
round Keady[G] town
And[G] when they hear that I'm awa' they'll[C] raise a 
hullabaloo
When they[D] hear about that handsome lad they call 
Jack Dona[G]hue!

cho: 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!
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!
