One Shot Paddy

Unknown

 

In Ireland many years ago or so the legend says

Saint Patrick roamed the hills and glens to drive the snakes away,

But now we have another another saint thats bad news for the crown

His name is 'One Shot Paddy' and its Brits that he will hound!

 

[chorus]

The brits are getting worried theyve all gone underground

If One Shot Paddy sees them they know theyre going down

So the next time that you see the Brits with their faces full of fright

Look out for 'One Shot Paddy' and his friend called Eamon Wright!

 

Through the hills of South Armagh this gallant hero roams

Hell wander through the countryside he likes to call his home,

And when he finds a target he will quietly take his aim,

It is then that you will hear the crack and the Brits know whos to blame!

 

So if youre home at night and the newsflash it is red,

Your man from South Armaghs at work another soldier dead,

And when it comes to celebrate Saint Patricks day cheer,

Remember 'One Shot Paddy' and the gallant IRA!
