1. In sweet Lim'rick Town, they say Lived a chap named Patrick John Molloy Once he sailed to the U.S.A. His luck in foreign parts he thought he'd try Now he's made his name, and is a wealthy man He put a bit away for a rainy day So if you gaze upon The house of Patrick John You'll find a notice that goes on to say:

2. Patrick loved the girl he wed But he could not stand his Ma-n-aw Once with joy he turned quite red When she got into trouble thro' her jaw Six police they had to take her to the Court She was informed a month she would have to do So Patrick quickly wrote Up to the Judge a note Explaining, "Sir, I'm much obliged to you!"

Refrain: If you're Irish come into the parlour There's a welcome there for you If your name is Timothy or Pat So long as you come from Ireland There's a welcome on the mat If You come from the Mountains of Mourne Or Killarney's lakes so blue We'll sing you a song and we'll make a fuss Whoever you are you are one of us If you're Irish, this is the place for you.
