Current song lyrics
The cadillac stood by the house<br />And the yanks they were within<br />And the tinker boys they hissed advice<br />'Hot-wire her with a pin'<br />Then we turned and shook as we had a look<br />In the room where the dead man lay<br />So big Jim Dwyer made his last trip<br />To the {shores} where his father's laid<br /><br />Fifteen minutes later<br />We had our first taste of whiskey<br />There was uncles giving lectures<br />On ancient Irish history<br />The men all started telling jokes<br />And the women they got frisky<br />By five o'clock in the evening<br />Every bastard there was {pisky}<br /><br />Fare thee well going away<br />There's nothing left to say<br />Farewell to New York City boys<br />To Boston and PA<br />He took them out<br />With a well-aimed clout<br />He was often heard to say<br />I'm a free born man of the USA<br /><br />He fought the champ in Pittsburgh<br />And he slashed him to the ground<br />He took on Tiny Tartanella<br />And it only went one round<br />He never had no time for reds<br />For drink or dice or whores<br />{But} he never threw a fight<br />When the fight was right<br />So they sent him to the war<br /><br />Fare the well gone away<br />There's nothing left to say<br />With a sláinte Joe and Erin go <br />My love's in Amerikay<br />They're calling out the rosary<br />Spanish wine from far away <br />I'm a free born man of the USA<br /><br />This morning on the harbour<br />When I said goodbye to you<br />I remember how I swore<br />That I'd come back to you one day<br />And as the sunset came to meet<br />The evening on the hill<br />I told you I'd always love you<br />I always did {,} I always will<br /><br />Fare thee well gone away<br />There's nothing left to say<br />'cept to say adieu<br />To your eyes as blue<br />As the water in the bay<br />And to big Jim Dwyer<br />The man of wire<br />Who was often heard to say<br />I'm a free born man of the USA
