Lyrics
Paddy's Heaven
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Crack the whip and smash the panes
And lash the laggard while he strains
And then when no one else remains
For the road to heaven
No one else to scream and shout
And kick the bloody windows out
Off to Paddy's heaven
Chorus: Lock the doors and strip the plough
Paddy must be going now
On the road and God knows how
Off to Paddy's Heaven
Here's a nice one from the start
Kick the bugger's life apart
And then I'll add with all my heart
On the road to heaven
And believe me when I say
Come again another day
You'll see me duck and weave and pray
All for Paddy's Heaven
And whatever is my name
Surrogates will take the blame
And others still will feel the pain
On the road to heaven
And while they wander in the night
I'll sit and watch the pale moonlight
And in my bed all tucked up tight
I'll dream of Paddy's heaven
And if should come as comes to all
That someday others hear the call
They may rise and I may fall
And burn in Paddy's heaven.
