Lyrics The Night Pat Murphy Died

Oh the night that
Paddy Murphy died is a night I'll never forget
Some of the boys got loaded drunk and they ain't got sober yet
As long as a bottle was passed around every man was feelin' gay
O'Leary came with the bagpipes some music for to play
That's how they showed their respect for Paddy Murphy
That's how they showed their honour and their pride
They said it was a sin and shame and they winked at one another
And every drink in the place was full the night Pat Murphy died
As Mrs. Murphy sat in the corner pourin' out her grief
Kelly and his gang came tearin' down the street
They went into an empty room and a bottle of whiskey stole
They put the bottle with the corpse to keep that whiskey cold
That's how they showed their respect for Paddy Murphy
That's how they showed their honour and their pride
They said it was a sin and shame and they winked at one another
And every drink in the place was full the night Pat Murphy died
About two o'clock in the mornin' after emptyin' the jug
Doyle rolls up the ice box lid to see poor Paddy's mug
We stopped the clock so Mrs. Murphy couldn't tell the time
And at a quarter after two we argued it was nine
That's how they showed their respect for Paddy Murphy
That's how we showed our honour and our pride
They said it was a sin and shame and they winked at one another
And every drink in the place was full the night Pat Murphy died
Oh
Huh huh huh
Well they stopped the hearse on George Street outside Sundance Saloon
They all went in at half past eight and staggered out at noon
They went up to the graveyard so holy and sublime
Found out when they got there they'd left the corpse behind
That's how they showed their respect for Paddy Murphy
That's how they showed their honour and their pride
They said it was a sin and shame and they winked at one another
And every drink in the place was full the night Pat Murphy died
Oh the night that
Paddy Murphy died is a night I'll never forget
Some of the boys got loaded drunk and they ain't got sober yet
As long as a bottle was passed around every man was feelin' gay
O'Leary came with the bagpipes some music for to play
That's how they showed their respect for Paddy Murphy
That's how they showed their honour and their pride
They said it was a sin and shame and they winked at one another
And every drink in the place was full the night Pat Murphy died
Well every drink in the place was full the night Pat Murphy died
