Verse
G G7
I'm a decent boy just landed
C D7
From the town of Ballyfad
G C
I want a situation,
G D
And I want it very bad
D7 G G7
I have seen employment advertised
C D7
It's just the thing" says I
G C
But the dirty spalpeen ended with
G D7 G
No Irish Need Apply' "
G G7
"Whoa," says I, "that is an insult
C D7
But to get the job I'll try"
A7
So I went to see the blackguard
D A7 D
With his "No Irish Need Apply"
D7 G G7
Some do count it a misfortune
C D7
To be christened Pat or Dan
G C
But to me it is an honor
D D7 G
To be born an Irishman
[Verse 2]
G G7
I started out to find the place,
C D7
I got it mighty soon
D7 G G7
There I found the old chap seated
C D7
He was reading the Tribune
G G7
I told him what I came for
C D7
When he in a rage did fly
D7 G G7
"No!" he says, "You are a Paddy
C D7
And no Irish need apply"
G G7
Then I gets my dander rising
C D7
And I'd like to black his eye,
A7
But I cooled it down and asked him why
D A7 D
No Irish Need Apply
D7 G G7
Some do count it a misfortune
C D7
To be christened Pat or Dan
G C
But to me it is an honor

G G7
And says I to him your ancestors
C D7
came over here like me,
G G7
To try and make a living
C D7
in this land of liberty
G G7
They were greeted here with dignity
C D7
And taught to reep and sow,
G G7
By the Indians who owned this land
C D7
They didn't tell you no,
G G7
But I'll get a job in spite of you
C D7
For I'm willing heart in hand,
A7
Thank God there's better men than you
D A7 D
All over this great land.

And they say that in America
C D7
It always is the plan

That an Irishman is just as good
C D7
As any other man,
G G7
E home and hospitality
C D7
They never will deny
G G7
To strangers here forever say
C D7
No Irish need apply,
G G7
But there's some bad apples everywhere
C D7
E dirty lot says I,
A7
And a decent man may never write

Some do count it a misfortune
C D7

But to me it is an honor
