[00:00:00] Paddy McGinty's Goat - Brier

[00:00:08] Paddy mcginty's goat the hit co

[00:00:11] Now patrick mcginty an irishman of note he bought himself a goat

[00:00:13] Says he sure of goat's milk i'm goin to have me fill

[00:00:16] But when he brought a nanny home he found it was a bill

[00:00:19] All the young ladies who live in killaloo

[00:00:22] They're all wearing bustles like their mothers used to do

[00:00:25] They each wear a bolster beneath their petticoat

[00:00:28] And leave the rest to providence and paddy mcginty's goat

[00:00:33] Mrs burke to her daughter said listen mary jane

[00:00:36] Who was the lad you were cuddlin in the lane

[00:00:39] He'd long wiry whiskers a hangin from his chin

[00:00:42] Twas only pat mcginty's goat she answered with a grin

[00:00:45] Then she went away from the village in disgrace

[00:00:48] She came back with powder and paint upon her face

[00:00:51] She'd rings on her fingers and she wore a sable coat

[00:00:54] You bet your life she didn't get those from paddy mcginty's goat

[00:00:59] Now norah mccarthy the knot was goin to tie

[00:01:02] She washed out her trousseau and she hung it out to dry

[00:01:05] Along came the goat and he saw the bits of white

[00:01:07] And chewed up all her falderals upon her wedding night

[00:01:10] Oh turn out the light quick she shouted out to pat

[00:01:13] For though i'm your bride sure i'm not worth lookin at

[00:01:16] I had two of everything i told you when i wrote

[00:01:19] But now i've one of nothin all through paddy mcginty's goat

[00:01:24] Mickey riley he went to the races t'other day

[00:01:28] He won twenty dollars and he shouted hip hooray

[00:01:30] He held up the note shoutin look at what i've got

[00:01:33] The goat came up and grabbed it and he swallowed up the lot

[00:01:36] He's eaten my banknote says mickey with a hump

[00:01:39] They went for the doctor and they got a stomach pump

[00:01:42] They pumped and they pumped for the twenty dollar note

[00:01:45] But all they got was ninepence out of paddy mcginty's goat

[00:01:50] Now old paddy's goat had a wonderous appetite

[00:01:53] And one day for breakfast he had some dynamite

[00:01:56] A big box of matches he swallowed all serene

[00:01:59] Then out he went and swallowed up a quart of paraffin

[00:02:02] He sat by the fireside he didn't give a hang

[00:02:05] He swallowed a spark and exploded with a bang

[00:02:08] So if you go to heaven you can bet a dollar note

[00:02:14] That the angel with the whiskers on is paddy mcginty's goat
