The Wolfe Tones - Some Say The Devil Is Dead

Some say the devil is dead
The devil is dead, the devil is dead
Some say the devil is dead
And buried in Killarney
More say he rose again, more
Say he rose again, more say he rose again
And joined the British army

Feed the pigs and milk the cow, milk the cow
Milk the cow feed the pigs and milk the cow
So early in the morning
Tuck your leg up, Paddy, dear paddy, dear
I'm over here! Tuck your leg up, Paddy dear
It's time to stop your yawning


Some say the devil is dead
The devil is dead, the devil is dead
Some say the devil is dead
And buried in Killarney
More say he rose again, more
Say he rose again, more say he rose
Again and joined the British army

Katie, she is tall and thin, tall and thin
Tall and thin
Katie, she is tall and thin she
Likes a drop of brandy
Drinks it in the bed at night, drinks
It in the bed at night
Drinks it in the bed at night
It makes her nice and randy

Some say the devil is dead
The devil is dead, the devil is dead
Some say the devil is dead
And buried in Killarney
More say he rose again, more
Say he rose again, more say he rose
Again and joined the British army

My man is six foot tall, six foot tall
Six foot tall my man is six foot tall
He likes his sugar candy
Goes to bed at six o'clock, goes
To bed at six o'clock
Goes to bed at six o'clock
He's lazy, fat and dandy

Some say the devil is dead
The devil is dead, the devil is dead
Some say the devil is dead
And buried in Killarney
More say he rose again, more
Say he rose again, more say he rose
Again and joined the British army

My wife, she has a hairy
Thing, a hairy thing, a hairy thing
My wife, she has a hairy thing
She showed it to me Sunday
She bought it in the furrier shop
Bought it in the furrier shop
Bought it in the furrier shop
It's going back on Monday

Some say the devil is dead
The devil is dead, the devil is dead
Some say the devil is dead
And buried in Killarney
More say he rose again, more
Say he rose again, more say he rose
Again and joined the British army
