Verse
A# A#7
I'm a decent boy just landed
D# F7
From the town of Ballyfad
A# D#
I want a situation,
A# F
And I want it very bad
F7 A# A#7
I have seen employment advertised
D# F7
It's just the thing" says I
A# D#
But the dirty spalpeen ended with
A# F7 A#
No Irish Need Apply' "
A# A#7
"Whoa," says I, "that is an insult
D# F7
But to get the job I'll try"
C7
So I went to see the blackguard
F C7 F
With his "No Irish Need Apply"
F7 A# A#7
Some do count it a misfortune
D# F7
To be christened Pat or Dan
A# D#
But to me it is an honor
F F7 A#
To be born an Irishman
[Verse 2]
A# A#7
I started out to find the place,
D# F7
I got it mighty soon
F7 A# A#7
There I found the old chap seated
D# F7
He was reading the Tribune
A# A#7
I told him what I came for
D# F7
When he in a rage did fly
F7 A# A#7
"No!" he says, "You are a Paddy
D# F7
And no Irish need apply"
A# A#7
Then I gets my dander rising
D# F7
And I'd like to black his eye,
C7
But I cooled it down and asked him why
F C7 F
No Irish Need Apply
F7 A# A#7
Some do count it a misfortune
D# F7
To be christened Pat or Dan
A# D#
But to me it is an honor
F F7 A#
To be born an Irishman
[Verse 3]
A# A#7
And says I to him your ancestors
D# F7
came over here like me,
A# A#7
To try and make a living
D# F7
in this land of liberty
A# A#7
They were greeted here with dignity
D# F7
And taught to reep and sow,
A# A#7
By the Indians who owned this land
D# F7
They didn't tell you no,
A# A#7
But I'll get a job in spite of you
D# F7
For I'm willing heart in hand,
C7
Thank God there's better men than you
F C7 F
All over this great land.
F7 A# A#7
Some do count it a misfortune

And they say that in America
D# F7
It always is the plan
A# A#7
That an Irishman is just as good
D# F7
As any other man,
A# A#7
G home and hospitality
D# F7
They never will deny
A# A#7
To strangers here forever say
D# F7
No Irish need apply,
A# A#7
But there's some bad apples everywhere
D# F7
G dirty lot says I,
C7
And a decent man may never write
F C7 F
No Irish need apply.
F7 A# A#7
Some do count it a misfortune
D# F7
To be christened Pat or Dan
A# D#
But to me it is an honor
