The Devil Is Dead
Some say the devil is dead, the devil is dead, the devil is dead
Some say the devil is dead and buried in Killarney
More say he rose again, more say he rose again, more say he rose again
And joined the British army
Feed the pigs and milk the cow, milk the cow, milk the cow
Feed the pigs and milk the cow, so early in the morning
Tuck your leg up, Paddy, dear
Paddy, dear, I'm over here!
Tuck your leg up, Paddy dear
It's time to stop your yawning
Some say the devil is dead, the devil is dead, the devil is dead
Some say the devil is dead and buried in Killarney
More say he rose again, more say he rose again, more say he rose again
And joined the British army
My wife, she has a hairy thing, a hairy thing, a hairy thing
My wife, she has a hairy thing, she showed it to me Sunday
She bought it in the furrier shop
Bought it in the furrier shop
Bought it in the furrier shop
It's going back on Monday
Some say the devil is dead, the devil is dead, the devil is dead
Some say the devil is dead and buried in Killarney
More say he rose again, more say he rose again, more say he rose again
And joined the British army
My man is six foot tall, he's six foot tall, he's six foot tall
My man is six foot tall, he likes a drop of Brandy
Drinks it in the bed each night
Drinks it in the bed each night
He drinks it in the bed each night
It makes him nice and brandy
Some say the devil is dead, the devil is dead, the devil isdead
Some say the devil is dead and buried in Killarney
More say he rose again, more say he rose again, more say he rose again
And joined the British army
Some say the devil is dead, the devil is dead, the devil is dead
Some say the devil is dead and buried in Killarney
More say he rose again, more say he rose again, more say he rose again
And joined the British army
Some say the devil is dead and buried in Killarney
More say he rose again, more say he rose again, more say he rose again
And joined the British army
Feed the pigs and milk the cow, milk the cow, milk the cow
Feed the pigs and milk the cow, so early in the morning
Tuck your leg up, Paddy, dear
Paddy, dear, I'm over here!
Tuck your leg up, Paddy dear
It's time to stop your yawning
Some say the devil is dead, the devil is dead, the devil is dead
Some say the devil is dead and buried in Killarney
More say he rose again, more say he rose again, more say he rose again
And joined the British army
My wife, she has a hairy thing, a hairy thing, a hairy thing
My wife, she has a hairy thing, she showed it to me Sunday
She bought it in the furrier shop
Bought it in the furrier shop
Bought it in the furrier shop
It's going back on Monday
Some say the devil is dead, the devil is dead, the devil is dead
Some say the devil is dead and buried in Killarney
More say he rose again, more say he rose again, more say he rose again
And joined the British army
My man is six foot tall, he's six foot tall, he's six foot tall
My man is six foot tall, he likes a drop of Brandy
Drinks it in the bed each night
Drinks it in the bed each night
He drinks it in the bed each night
It makes him nice and brandy
Some say the devil is dead, the devil is dead, the devil isdead
Some say the devil is dead and buried in Killarney
More say he rose again, more say he rose again, more say he rose again
And joined the British army
Some say the devil is dead, the devil is dead, the devil is dead
Some say the devil is dead and buried in Killarney
More say he rose again, more say he rose again, more say he rose again
And joined the British army
