Paddy Mcginty's Goat - Ameritz Tribute Club

Now patrick mcginty an irishman of note

Fell in for a fortune and he bought himself a goat

Says he sure of goat's milk i'm goin to have me fill

But when he brought a nanny home he found it was a bill

All the young ladies who live in killaloo

They're all wearing bustles like their mothers used to do

They each wear a bolster beneath their petticoat

And leave the rest to providence and paddy mcginty's goat

Mrs burke to her daughter said listen mary jane

Who was the lad you were cuddlin in the lane

He'd long wiry whiskers a hangin from his chin

Twas only pat mcginty's goat she answered with a grin

Then she went away from the village in disgrace

She came back with powder and paint upon her face

She'd rings on her fingers and she wore a sable coat

You bet your life she didn't get those from paddy mcginty's goat

Now norah mccarthy the knot was goin to tie

She washed out her trousseau and she hung it out to dry

Along came the goat and he saw the bits of white

And chewed up all her falderals upon her wedding night

Oh turn out the light quick she shouted out to pat

For though i'm your bride sure i'm not worth lookin at

I had two of everything i told you when i wrote

But now i've one of nothin all through paddy mcginty's goat

Mickey riley he went to the races t'other day

He won twenty dollars and he shouted hip hooray

He held up the note shoutin look at what i've got

The goat came up and grabbed it and he swallowed up the lot

He's eaten my banknote says mickey with a hump

They went for the doctor and they got a stomach pump

They pumped and they pumped for the twenty dollar note

But all they got was ninepence out of paddy mcginty's goat

Now old paddy's goat had a wonderous appetite

And one day for breakfast he had some dynamite

A big box of matches he swallowed all serene

Then out he went and swallowed up a quart of paraffin

He sat by the fireside he didn't give a hang

He swallowed a spark and exploded with a bang

So if you go to heaven you can bet a dollar note

That the angel with the whiskers on is paddy mcginty's goat
