[00:00.000]	作曲 : Joe English
[00:00.809]	I’m Paddy Magee, sir, from Ballinahee, sir
[00:05.430]	In an illigant ship I come over the say;
[00:08.646]	Father Donahoe sent me, my passage he lent me–
[00:11.724]	Sure, only for that, I’d a walked all the way!
[00:14.889]	He talked of America’s freedom and glory;
[00:18.019]	“Begorra,” says I, “that’s the counthry for me!”
[00:21.232]	So, to ind a long story, I’ve now come before ye
[00:24.258]	To give the opinions of Paddy Magee
[00:30.238]	Whin Ireland was needing, and famine was feeding
[00:32.905]	And thousands were dying for something to ate
[00:36.093]	‘Twas America’s daughters that sent over the waters
[00:39.418]	The ships that were loaded with corn and whate:
[00:42.456]	And Irishmen sure will forever remember
[00:45.629]	The vessels that carried the flag of the free;
[00:48.799]	And the land that befriended, they’ll die to defend it
[00:52.114]	And that’s the opinions of Paddy Magee
[01:00.619]	I’m sure none are bowlder the musket to showlder
[01:03.977]	Enlisting to learn the sojering trade–
[01:07.050]	With Corcoran fighting, in Meagher delighting
[01:10.178]	They swell up the ranks of the Irish Brigade
[01:13.257]	With Columbia defying the bould British Lion
[01:16.528]	The sons of ould Ireland forever shall be;
[01:19.561]	I’ll have no intervention, if that’s their intention–
[01:22.818]	And that’s the opinions of Paddy Magee
[01:52.806]	John Bull, ye ould divil
[01:54.486]	Ye’d betther keep civil!
[01:56.024]	Remimber the story of ‘Seventy-six
[01:59.061]	Whin Washington glorious he slathered the Tories;
[02:02.330]	Away from Columbia you then cut your sticks
[02:05.359]	And if once again you’re inclined to be meddling
[02:08.578]	There’s a city that’s called New Orleans, d’ye see
[02:11.703]	Where Hickory Jackson he drove off the Saxon–
[02:14.881]	Now that’s the opinions of Paddy Magee
[02:23.478]	Though now we’re in trouble, it’s only a bubble
[02:26.833]	We’ll soon make the foes of the Union retire;
[02:29.954]	Foreign knaves that would meddle had better skedaddle
[02:33.170]	For them Uncle Sam has a taste of Greek fire!
[02:36.289]	They’ll find if they try it, Columbia’s a giant
[02:39.606]	And victory perched on the flag of the free;
[02:42.404]	For the American nation can whale all creation–
[02:45.575]	Now that’s the opinions of Paddy Magee
[02:51.477]	Now that’s the opinions of Paddy Magee
