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