Verse
D D7
I'm a decent boy just landed
G A7
From the town of Ballyfad
D G
I want a situation,
D A
And I want it very bad
A7 D D7
I have seen employment advertised
G A7
It's just the thing" says I
D G
But the dirty spalpeen ended with
D A7 D
No Irish Need Apply' "
D D7
"Whoa," says I, "that is an insult
G A7
But to get the job I'll try"
E7
So I went to see the blackguard
A E7 A
With his "No Irish Need Apply"
A7 D D7
Some do count it a misfortune
G A7
To be christened Pat or Dan
D G
But to me it is an honor
A A7 D
To be born an Irishman
[Verse 2]
D D7
I started out to find the place,
G A7
I got it mighty soon
A7 D D7
There I found the old chap seated
G A7
He was reading the Tribune
D D7
I told him what I came for
G A7
When he in a rage did fly
A7 D D7
"No!" he says, "You are a Paddy
G A7
And no Irish need apply"
D D7
Then I gets my dander rising
G A7
And I'd like to black his eye,
E7
But I cooled it down and asked him why
A E7 A
No Irish Need Apply
A7 D D7
Some do count it a misfortune
G A7
To be christened Pat or Dan
D G
But to me it is an honor
A A7 D
To be born an Irishman
[Verse 3]
D D7
And says I to him your ancestors
G A7
came over here like me,
D D7
To try and make a living
G A7
in this land of liberty
D D7
They were greeted here with dignity
G A7
And taught to reep and sow,
D D7
By the Indians who owned this land
G A7
They didn't tell you no,
D D7
But I'll get a job in spite of you
G A7
For I'm willing heart in hand,
E7
Thank God there's better men than you
A E7 A
All over this great land.
A7 D D7
Some do count it a misfortune
G A7
To be christened Pat or Dan
D G
But to me it is an honor
A A7 D
To be born an Irishman
[Verse 3]
D D7
And they say that in America
G A7
It always is the plan
D D7
That an Irishman is just as good
G A7
As any other man,
D D7
B home and hospitality
G A7
They never will deny
D D7
To strangers here forever say
G A7
No Irish need apply,
D D7
But there's some bad apples everywhere
G A7
B dirty lot says I,
E7
And a decent man may never write
A E7 A
No Irish need apply.
A7 D D7
Some do count it a misfortune
G A7
To be christened Pat or Dan
D G
But to me it is an honor
A A7 D
To be born an Irishman
