Bold O'Donoghue - Tom Donovan

Here I am from Paddy's Land

The land of high renown

I broke the hearts of

All the girls for miles round Keady Town

And when they hear that

I'm a'wa they'll raise a hullabaloo

When they hear about the

Handsome man they call O'Donoghue

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 you what I'll do

I'll court her like an Irishman

With a brogue and blarney to is me plan

With me huligan wuligan ruligan

Swuligan Bold O'Donoghue

I wish me love was a red

Red rose growin' on yon garden wall

And me to be a dew drop

And upon her brow I'd fall

Perhaps now she might think of me as rather heavy dew

No more to love that handsome

Man they call O'Donoghue

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 you what I'll do

I'll court her like an Irishman

With a brogue and blarney to is me plan

With me huligan wuligan ruligan

Swuligan Bold O'Donoghue

I hear that Queen Victoria

Has a daughter fine and grand

Perhaps she'll take it in to her

Head for to marry an Irishman

And if I can only get a chance

To have a word or two

Perhaps she'll take a notion

To the bold O'Donoghue

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 you what I'll do

I'll court her like an Irishman

With a brogue and blarney to is me plan

With me huligan wuligan ruligan

Swuligan Bold O'Donoghue

Here I am from Paddy's Land

The land of high renown

I broke the hearts of all the girls

For miles round Keady Town

And when they hear that

I'm a'wa they'll raise a hullabaloo

When they hear about the handsome man

They call O'Donoghue

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 you what I'll do

I'll court her like an Irishman

With a brogue and blarney to is me plan

With me huligan wuligan ruligan
