[00:16.526] 'Twas the night before battle and gathered in groups
[00:20.492] The soldiers lay close at their quarters
[00:24.508] They were thinking no doubt of the dear ones at home
[00:28.482] Of mothers, wives, sisters, and daughters
[00:32.539] With his pipe in his mouth sat a dashing young blade
[00:36.360] And a song he was lilting quite gaily
[00:40.418] It was honest Pat Murphy of Meagher's Brigade
[00:44.385] And he sang of the sprig of shillelagh
[00:52.383] Och murder, says Pat, it's a shame for to see
[00:56.255] Brothers fighting in such a queer manner
[01:00.225] But I'll fight till I die, if I shouldn't be kilt
[01:04.182] For America's bright starry banner
[01:08.470] Now if it was only John Bull to the forе
[01:12.243] I'd rush into battle quite gaily
[01:16.332] For the spalpeen I'd rap with a hеart and a half
[01:20.108] With my elegant sprig of shillelagh
[01:32.147] Jeff Davis, you thief, if I had you but here
[01:35.978] Your beautiful plans I'd be ruinin'
[01:39.850] Faith, I'd give you a taste of my bayonet, bedad
[01:44.091] For trying to burst up the Union
[01:47.923] There's a crowd in the North too, and they're just as bad
[01:52.059] Abolitionist spouters so scaly
[01:56.205] For troubling the Negros I think they deserve
[01:59.980] A whack from a sprig of shillelagh
[02:08.206] The morning soon came and poor Paddy awoke
[02:11.946] On the Rebels to have satisfaction
[02:15.857] And the drummers were beating the Devil's tattoo
[02:19.860] Calling the boys into action
[02:23.872] Then the Irish Brigade in the battle was seen
[02:27.793] Their blood in our cause shedding freely
[02:31.753] With their bayonet charges they rushed on the foe
[02:35.751] With a shout for the land of Shillelagh
[03:14.491] The battle was over, the dead lay in heaps
[03:18.509] Pat Murphy lay bleedin' and gory
[03:22.385] A hole through his head from a rifleman's shot
[03:26.544] Had finished his passion for glory
[03:30.435] No more in the camp shall his laughter be heard
[03:34.271] Nor his voice singing ditties so gaily
[03:38.597] Like a hero he died for the Land of the Free
[03:42.367] Far away from the land of Shillelagh
[03:46.625] Then surely Columbia can never forget
[03:50.300] While valor and fame hold communion
[03:54.164] How nobly the brave Irish Volunteers fought
[03:58.270] In defense of the flag of our Union
[04:02.181] If ever Old Ireland for freedom should strike
[04:06.128] We'll a helping hand offer quite freely
[04:10.140] And the Stars and the Stripes shall be seen alongside
[04:14.114] Of the flag of the land of Shillelagh
[04:18.633] It was honest Pat Murphy of Meagher's Brigade
[04:22.224] And he sang of the sprig of shillelagh
