Verse 1
Oh, Here I Am From Paddy's Land,
The Land Of High Renown
I've Broke The Hearts Of All The Girls
From Miles Around Keady Town
And When They Hear That I'm Awa',
They'll Raise A Hullabaloo
When They Hear About That Handsome Lad
That They Call O'donoghue
Chorus
For I'm The Boy To Please Her
And I'm The Boy To Tease Her
I'm The Boy Can Squeeze Her And I'll Tell You What We'll Do
I'll Court Her Like An Irishman
And Me Brogue And Blarney Too Is My Plan
With My Rolligan, Swalligan, Holligan, Wolligan
Bould O'donoghue
Verse 2
I Wish My Love Was A Red, Red Rose,
Growing On Yon Garden Wall
And I Can Be The Dew Drop
And Upon Your Brow I'd Fall
Perhaps That She Might Think On Me
As A Rather Heavy Dew
No More She'd Love The Handsome Lad
They Call O'donoghue
Chorus
For I'm The Boy To Please Her
And I'm The Boy To Tease Her
I'm The Boy Can Squeeze Her And I'll Tell You What We'll Do
I'll Court Her Like An Irishman
And Me Brogue And Blarney Too Is My Plan
With My Rolligan, Swalligan, Holligan, Wolligan
Bould O'donoghue

Verse 3
I Hear The Queen Of England
Has A Daughter Fine And Grand
Perhaps She'd Take It Into Her Head
For To Marry An Irishman
If I Could Only Get The Chance
To Have A Word Or Two
I'm Sure She'd Take A Notion
In The Bould O'donoghue
Chorus
For I'm The Boy To Please Her
And I'm The Boy To Tease Her
I'm The Boy Can Squeeze Her And I'll Tell You What We'll Do
I'll Court Her Like An Irishman
And Me Brogue And Blarney Too Is My Plan
With My Rolligan, Swalligan, Holligan, Wolligan
Bould O'donoghue
Chorus
For I'm The Boy To Please Her
And I'm The Boy To Tease Her
I'm The Boy Can Squeeze Her And I'll Tell You What We'll Do
I'll Court Her Like An Irishman
And Me Brogue And Blarney Too Is My Plan
With My Rolligan, Swalligan, Holligan, Wolligan
Bould O'donoghue
