My name is John O'Reilly

And my father worked the fields

In the hills of cold Killarney

Where I helped him turn the wheels

My arms grew hard as iron for a boy of seventeen

And I used my fists for gamblin'

In those wet Killarney streets

Well the ship left for America and I took my pack aboard

Said goodbye to my dear Ireland

Said a prayer to my dear Lord

Well I fought those sorry guineas

In the kitchen they called Hell

And I fought them for their dollars

And those guineas paid me well

Fare thee well fair Dover

Fare thee well your seasons turn

My pockets will be jinglin' on the day of my return

Well I fought in New York City

My gut stayed full of whiskey

And my bed stayed full of ******

They called my right a cannon-ball

My left they called the same

And I left them all a-lyin'

Half in blood and half in shame

And he stuck out his hand

If I'd fall before his man

I said it could be done but only for another two

And he smiled at me and nodded

As I stuck it in my shoe

My pockets will be jinglin' on the day of my return

Well they rang the bell two times

Before I let him have my nose

My eye was swollen closed

Then I let loose a right that

They still talk about to-day

For that guinea didn't know that

I had bet the other way

Well they covered every dock

And every port there on the coast

Looking for the double-crosser

Who had turned into a ghost

But I was on a train my friend

That rode the other way

And I'll sail from California back

To Dublin one fine day
