For I was by hunger pressed, And in poverty distressed, And I took a thought I'd leave the Irish nation. cho: So, here's you boys, Do take my advice; To Americay I'd have youse not be farin' For there's nothing here but war, Where the murdering cannons roar, And I wish I was at home in dear old Erin. I sold me horse and plough, Me little pigs and cow, And me little farm of land and I parted. And me sweetheart, Biddy McGhee, I'm sure I'll never see, For I left her there that morning, broken hearted. cho: Meself, and a hundred more, To America sailed o'er, Our fortune to be making, we was thinking; But when we landed in Yankee land, They shoved a gun into our hand, Saying," Paddy, you must go and fight for Lincoln. " cho: General Mahar (Meagher) to us said, "If you get shot or lose your head, Every murdered soul of you will get a pension." Well, in the war I lost me leg All I've now is a wooden peg; I tell you, 'tis the truth to you I'll mention. cho: Now I think meself in luck To be fed upon Indian buck In old Ireland, the country I delight in; And with the devil I do say, "Curse Americay, " For I'm sure I've had enough on their hard fighting. From Margaret Christl, The Barley Grain for Me (Folk-Legacy FSC- 62) Note: According to Frank Harte, "by the hush" is a corruption of the Irish "Bi i do thost", or "be quiet" RG. @America @war @immigrant filename[ BYHUSH play.exe BYHUSH RG ===DOCUMENT BOUNDARY Related Lyrics Random lyrics: Callingon Song, Calomel, Cam Ye Over Frae France, Cameroon Anthem Text, Cameroon Native Anthem Text, Camp Grenada, Campbell The Drover, Camping, Camptown Races, Can The Circle Be Unbroken, Can Ye Sew Cushions, Can You Dig That Crazy Gibberish, Can You Type Mary Alice, Canada Anthem Text, Canada Native Anthem Text, Canadaio, Candlelight Fisherman, Canine Eneuretic, Cannily Cannily, Cape Anne, Cape Cod Girls, Captain Hanley And Sweet Mazie, Captain Jinks Of The Horse Marines, Captain Ward, Captain Ward And The Rainbow, Captain Wedderburns Courtship, Captains Shanty, Card Song, Careless Love, Carmen, Carol For New Years Day, Carol Of The Bells, Carolina On My Mind, Carrion Crow, Carry It On, Casey Jones, Casey Jones The Union Scab, Castle Of Dromore, Cat Came Back, Cats Are Taking Over, Cats On The Rooftops, Cayman Island Anthem Text, Cecelia, Champion At Drivin Em Crazy, Chandlers Wife, Changes, Charlie Green Play That Thing, Charlie Is My Darling, Chastity Belt, Chatsworth Wreck, Other Unknown song Lyrics 99 Bottles of Beer on the Wall Lyrics A Bird in a Gilded Cage Lyrics A Fenian Song Lyrics A Fool Such As I Lyrics A Friend Like You Lyrics A Hero of the Wrong War Lyrics A Horse Named Bill Lyrics A Hundred Years from Now Lyrics A Kangaroo Sat on an Oak Lyrics A Little Bit of Solitude Lyrics A Living Wage Lyrics ...Show All Other Artists Unknown Prophets Lyrics Unleashed Lyrics Unleashed Power Lyrics Unlimited Nation Lyrics Unlimited Sound Lyrics UNLOCO Lyrics Unlord Lyrics UNLV Lyrics Unni Wilhelmsen Lyrics Uno Svenningsson Lyrics All lyrics are property and copyright of their owners and are strictly for educational purposes only. lyricstrue.net Copyright © 2005-2007 All Rights Reserved., , Privacy policy
