I was born in sweet Tipperary town

Three thousand miles away

Hurray me boys hurray
D A G A
No more do I wish for to roam
D A G D
For the sun it will shine in the harvest time
D A D
To welcome poor Paddy home

D A D
The girls thay are gay and frisky
D A G A
They'd take you by the hand
D A G D
Saying Jimmy mo chroi will you come with me
D A D
To welcome the stranger home

-Chorus-
In came the foreign nation
And scattered all over the land
The horse, the cow, the goat, sheep and sow
Came into the stranger's hands

-Chorus-
The Scotsman can boast of the thistle
And England can boast of the rose
But Paddy can boast of the Emerald Isle
Where the dear little shamrock grows.
