Wearin' of the Green - Thomas Motto[00:00:00]
Composed by:traditional[00:00:01]
O Paddy dear[00:00:05]
And did ye hear the news that's goin' round[00:00:06]
The shamrock is by law forbid[00:00:09]
To grow on Irish ground[00:00:11]
Saint Patrick's day we'll keep[00:00:13]
His color can't be seen[00:00:15]
For there's a funny law ag'in[00:00:17]
The wearin' o' the green[00:00:19]
I met with Napper Tandy[00:00:21]
And he took me by the hand[00:00:23]
And he said[00:00:25]
How's poor old Ireland[00:00:26]
And how does she stand[00:00:28]
She's the most distressful[00:00:31]
Country that ever yet was seen[00:00:32]
For they're hanging men and[00:00:35]
Women there for the wearin' o' the green[00:00:37]
So if the color we must wear be England's cruel red[00:00:41]
So Island suns the never forget[00:00:45]
That not that they have shed[00:00:47]
Pull the take the shamrock from your hat[00:00:49]
And pastick from the sod[00:00:51]
But 'twill take root there[00:00:53]
Though is think for underfoot 'tis trod[00:00:55]
When laws can stop the blades[00:00:58]
Of grass from growin' as they grow[00:01:00]
And when the leaves in Summer-time[00:01:02]
Never your dare not show[00:01:04]
Then I will change the color too[00:01:09]
I wear in my caubeen[00:01:11]
But till that day please God[00:01:14]
I'll stick to the wearin' o' the green[00:01:18]
To the wearin' o' the green[00:01:21]
To the wearin' o' the green[00:01:23]
