Paddy's short for Patrick, who is Ireland's patron saint

But Paddy's not concerned with any history to make

He doesn't mind if any lassie wants to chase his snake

So, Paddy went a strollin' one nice November day
G C D G
He came upon a leprechaun, the little elf did say,

Paddy, killed that fucking leprechaun and stole his pot of gold

So Paddy went a travelin', he hopped into his car
G C D G
He settled down in Hollywood, way out west out thar
C G
He's had his ups n' downs, and he's made some big mistakes,
G C D G
Especially hanging out with Oj Simpson and Tom Cruise.
[Chorus]

[Verse 5]
G C D G
Paddy took a fever, he nearly lost his head
G C D G
And early the next morning they found Paddy stone cold dead
C G
The doctor said, "good thing he has two sons who will survive him."
G C D G
The other doctor said, "I think I know a song that could revive him."
[Outro]
C
Hey Paddy,
