Kiss the Ould Mother, Hug the Old Man

There's an island that's famed and in story
Sweet poets of song and their praise
And their songs are of no brighter story
But her sons that have seen happier days
And though when I go the world over
And no matter where ever I go
In my heart there's a spot for old Ireland
And for you now sweet Molly a'store

[Chorus]
And I'll kiss the ould Mother and hug the ould Man
Give Johnny a shilling and shake hands with Dan
Fight for me country and do all I can
Then I go out with me girl Molly Ann

Old Erin my country once happy
But fortune once smiled on your shore
And I long for that day that's fast coming
When her beauty is be ever more

For the English decievers by nature
Though maybe you'd think them sincere
If they say you're a sweet charming creature
Now, dont you believe them my dear

[Chorus]
For I'll kiss the ould Mother and hug the ould Man
Give Johnny a shilling and shake hands with Dan
Fight for me country and do all I can
Then I go out with me girl Molly Ann

Success to the boys then from Erin
The finest and smartest there seen
In battle they prove themselves therein
True to shamrock, the harp and the green
Then here's to the mossy green bowers
That grows around Erin's green shore
Every link of the ancient round tower
And my girl now sweet Molly a'store

[Chorus]
And I'll kiss the ould Mother and hug the ould Man
Give Johnny a shilling and shake hands with Dan
Fight for me country and do all I can
Then I go out with me girl Molly Ann
