Banjo Paterson - Jimmy Dooley`s ArmyBanjo Paterson - Jimmy Dooley`s Army
Work rating:
Low
There`s a dashin` sort of boy
Which they call his Party`s Joy,
And his smile-that-won`t-come-off would quite disarm ye;
And he played the leadin` hand
In the Helter-Skelter Band,
Known as Jimmy Dooley`s Circulating Army.
When the rank and file they found,
They were marchin` round and round,
They one and all began to act unruly;
And the letter that he wrote,
Sure it got the Labor goat,
So we set ourselves to deal with Captain Dooley.
Chorus
Whill-il-loo. High Ho!
We`ll all be there you know,
The repartees and ructions they will charm ye;
And we`ll see which we prefer,
Is it Dooley or McGirr,
To take command of Jimmy Dooley`s Army.
When we`re marchin` to the poll,
And we`re under his control,
We sometimes feel a trifle unsalubrious;
For by one and all `twas said
That if our objective`s Red,
To call it claret-coloured makes us dubious.
Sure, the Fat Men one fine day
They chanced to come our way,
And we thought that we should bate them well and trooly;
But we let them pass us by
And not half a brick did fly,
`Twas then we tore our tickets up on Dooley.
Chorus
Whill-il-loo. High Ho!
We`ll all be there you know,
The repartees and ructions they will charm ye;
And we`ll see which we prefer,
Is it Dooley or McGirr,
To take command of Jimmy Dooley`s Army.
