It's the Same Old Shillelagh 歌詞
It's The Same Old Shillelagh - Audio Idols
Oh 50 years ago
Me father left old Erins shore
He landed here a Shillelagh in hand
And devil a little more
He got a job then got a wife then a family
And then he died
And left his old shillelagh stick to me
Sure it's the same old shillelagh me
Father brought from Ireland
And devil a man prouder than he
As he walked with it in his hand
He'd lead the band on Paddy's Day
And twirl it 'round his mitt
And devil a bit we'd laughted at it
Poor dad would have a fit
Sure with the same old shillelagh
Me father could lick a dozen men
As fast as they'd get up be gory
He'd knock 'em down again
And many's the time he used it
On me to make me understand
The same old shillelagh
Me father brought from Ireland
I'm going on the police force
It's the only thing to do
Instead of having one night stick
Be gory I'll have two
If there's a fight I'll be alright
Nobody bothers me
Because I have the old Shillelagh me father gave to me
Sure it's the same old shillelagh me
Father brought from Ireland
And devil a man prouder than he
As he walked with it in his hand
He'd lead the band on Paddy's Day
And twirl it 'round his mitt
And devil a bit we'd laughed at it
Or Dad would have a fit
Sure with the same old shillelagh me
Father could lick a dozen men
As fast as they'd get up be gory
He'd knock 'em down again
And many's the time he used it
On me to make me understand
The same old shillelagh me father brought from Ireland
