Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Paddy an Irish folk song
Felix kept on, kept on walking still,
He was like his daddy, so they called him Paddy.
Paddy had the whooping cough and Felix had the flue,
Paddy died, Felix cried,
Went to the funeral with his bride,
And he kept on walking still.
Don't think it' Irish - maybe Irish American - popular in the first half of the 20th century.
