Verse
E E7
I'm a decent boy just landed
A B7
From the town of Ballyfad
E A
I want a situation,
E B
And I want it very bad
B7 E E7
I have seen employment advertised
A B7
It's just the thing" says I
E A
But the dirty spalpeen ended with
E B7 E
No Irish Need Apply' "
E E7
"Whoa," says I, "that is an insult
A B7
But to get the job I'll try"
F#7
So I went to see the blackguard
B F#7 B
With his "No Irish Need Apply"
B7 E E7
Some do count it a misfortune
A B7
To be christened Pat or Dan
E A
But to me it is an honor
B B7 E
To be born an Irishman
[Verse 2]
E E7
I started out to find the place,
A B7
I got it mighty soon
B7 E E7
There I found the old chap seated
A B7
He was reading the Tribune
E E7
I told him what I came for
A B7
When he in a rage did fly
B7 E E7
"No!" he says, "You are a Paddy
A B7
And no Irish need apply"
E E7
Then I gets my dander rising
A B7
And I'd like to black his eye,
F#7
But I cooled it down and asked him why
B F#7 B
No Irish Need Apply
B7 E E7
Some do count it a misfortune
A B7
To be christened Pat or Dan
E A
But to me it is an honor
B B7 E

[Verse 3]
E E7
And says I to him your ancestors
A B7
came over here like me,
E E7
To try and make a living
A B7
in this land of liberty
E E7
They were greeted here with dignity
A B7
And taught to reep and sow,
E E7
By the Indians who owned this land
A B7
They didn't tell you no,
E E7
But I'll get a job in spite of you
A B7
For I'm willing heart in hand,
F#7
Thank God there's better men than you
B F#7 B
All over this great land.

It always is the plan

That an Irishman is just as good
A B7
As any other man,
E E7
C# home and hospitality
A B7
They never will deny
E E7
To strangers here forever say
A B7
No Irish need apply,

But there's some bad apples everywhere

C# dirty lot says I,
F#7
And a decent man may never write

No Irish need apply.

Some do count it a misfortune
A B7
To be christened Pat or Dan
E A
But to me it is an honor
