The Cadillac stood by the house
And the yanks they within
And the boys they advice
'Hot-wire her with a pin'
we turned and as we had a look
In the room where the dead men lay
So big Jim made his trip
To the where his father's laid
But minutes later
We had our first taste of whiskey
There was uncles giving lectures
On Irish history
The men all telling jokes
And the women they got frisky
At five o'clock in the evening
Every bastard there was piskey
Fare thee well
Gone away
There's nothin' left to say
to New City boys
To Boston and PA
He took them out
With a well-aimed clout
He was often heard to say
I'm a born man of the USA
He fought the champ in Pittsburgh
And he slashed him to the ground
He took on Tiny Tartanella
And it only went one round
He never had no time for reds
For drink or dice or whores
But he never threw a fight
When the fight was right
So him to the war
Fare thee well
away
There's nothin' left to say
With a slainte Joe and Erin go
My love's in Amerikay
The calling of the rosary
Spanish wine from far away
I'm a free born man of the USA, yeah!
This morning on the harbou
I said goodbye to you
I remember how I swore
That I'd come to you one day
And as the sunset came to meet
The on the hill
I told you I'd always love you
I always did and I will
Fare well
away
There's nothin' left to say
Except to say adieu
To eyes as blue
As the water in the bay
To big Jim Dwyer, the man of war
Who was heard to say
I'm a free born man of the USA
I'm a free born man of the USA
I'm a free born man of the USA
