And praise our chosen man | B |
Stand upright on your legs awhile | C |
Stand upright while you can | B |
For soon we lie where he is laid | D |
And he is underground | E |
Come fill up all those glasses | A |
And pass the bottle round | E |

And here's a cogent reason | F |
And I have many more | G |
He fought the might of England | H |
And saved the Irish poor | I |
Whatever good a farmer's got | J |

A husband that had sold hiS wife | N |
And after that betrayed | D |
But stories that live longest | O |
Are sung above the glass | A |
And Parnell loved his countrey | I |
And parnell loved his lass | A |
