Hello, Patsy Fagan
- Time: 4/4 Key: C
I'm /workin' here in /Glasgow, I've /got a dacent /job
/Carryin' bricks and /mortar, and me /pay is fifteen /bob
I /get up in the /mornin', I /jump up with the /lark
And /as I'm waltzing /down the street, I can /hear the girls re-/mark

Chorus:
Hel-/lo Patsy /Fagan, I can /hear the girls all /cry
Hel-/lo Patsy /Fagan, you're the /apple of me /eye
You're a /dacent boy from /Ireland, that /no one can de-/ny
You're a /rarem, scarem, /divil may carem, /dacent Irish /boy


Now /sure, there's one a-/mong you, would /like to marry /me
I'll /take her to a /little home, a-/cross the Irish /sea
I'll /dress her up in /satin, and /please her all I /can
And /make her people /see that I'm a /dacent Irish /man


The /morn that I left /Ireland, t'was /many years a-/go
I /left me home in /Galway, where the /pigs and praties /grow
But /since I left auld /Ireland, it's /always been my /plan
To /let the people /see that I'm a /dacent Irish /man

Notes:
- Chorus: only the ladies sing "Hello, Patsy Fagan"
