PAT OF MULLINGAR

1. You may talk and sing and boast about your Fenians and your clans,
And how the boys from County Cork b’at up the black an’ tans,
But I know a little codger who came out without a scar.
His name was Paddy Mulligan, the man from Mullingar.

CHORUS: The Peelers chased him out of Connemara
For b’atin’ up the bailiff’s man O’Hara,
And when he came to Ballymoe, he stole the parson’s car,
And he sold it to the bishop in the town of Castlebar.
Seven hundred Peelers couldn’t match him.
The chief sent out the orders for to catch him,
And when he came to Dublin town, he stole an armored car,
And he gave it the I.R.A. brigade in Mullingar.

2. Well, the Peelers got their orders to suppress the man at sight,
So they sent for reinforcements through the country left and right.
Three thousand men surrounded him. They hunted near and far,
But he was with the I.R.A. in Johnson’s motor car.

3. They came with tanks and armored cars. They came with all their might.
Them Peelers never counted on old Paddy’s dynamite.
On the fourteenth day of April, when he blew them to July,
And the name of Paddy Mulligan, the girls of Ireland sigh!
