“I left my home in Ireland not very long ago.”
(continued from previous page)In holding brick and mortar
My hire was eighteen bob
I rise up early in the morning
I rise up like a lark.
When passing through the factory
The factory girls remark
"Ah there goes Patsy Fagan on him I have got my eye.
I am an Irish boy from Ireland deny it no man can
I am a raram scaram devil may-care
I am an Irish Gentleman.(no title)
“When I am a man I'll be a Minister if I can.”
When I am a man
I'll be a minister if I can;
I'll fix my salary myself
And though I hanker not for pelf
When that obliging entity
The public intrest, whispers me
Another thousand, ill-paid creature ;
Can I refuse?, Hush, breathe not "teacher"
