Mcnamara's Band - Bing Crosby (平克·劳斯)
Oh me name is MacNamara
I'm the leader of the band
Although we're few in numbers
We're the finest in the land
We play at wakes and weddings
And at every fancy ball
And when we play the funerals
We play the March from Saul
Oh the drums go bang
And the cymbals clang
And the horns they blaze away
McCarthy pumps the old bassoon
While I the pipes do play
And Henessee Tennessee tootles the flute
And the music is somethin' grand
A credit to old Ireland is
MacNamara's band
Right now we are rehearsin'
For a very swell affair
The annual celebration
All the gentry will be there
When General Grant to Ireland came
He took me by the hand
Says he 'I never saw the likes
Of MacNamara's Band'
Oh the drums go bang
And the cymbals clang
And the horns they blaze away
McCarthy pumps the old bassoon
While I the pipes do play
And Henessee Tennessee tootles the flute
And the music is somethin' grand A credit to
Old Ireland is MacNamara's band
Oh my name is Uncle Julius
And from Sweden I did come
To play with MacNamara's Band
And beat the big bass drum
And when I march along the
Street the ladies think I'm grand
They shout 'There's Uncle Julius playin'
With an Irish band '
Oh I wear a bunch of shamrocks
And a uniform of green
And I'm the funniest lookin' Swede
That you have ever seen
There is O'Brians O'Ryans O'Sheehans
And Meehans they come from Ireland
But by yimminy I'm the only Swede
In MacNamara's Band
Oh the drums go bang
And the cymbals clang and
The horns they blaze away
McCarthy pumps the old bassoon
While I the pipes do play
And Henessee Tennessee tootles
The flute and the music is somethin
Grand A credit to old Ireland
Is MacNamara's band
