Lyrics:

'Hello Patsy Fagan' you can hear the girls all cry
'Hello Patsy Fagan, you're the apple of me eye
You're a decent boy from Ireland, there's no one can deny
You're a rare'm, tare'm, devil may care'm, a decent Irish boy'
I'm workin' here in Glasgow, and I've got a decent job
I'm carryin' bricks and mortar and the pay is fifteen bob
I rise up in the mornin' and I get up with the lark
And as I'm walkin' down the street, you can hear the girls remark
'Hello Patsy Fagan' you can hear the girls all cry
'Hello Patsy Fagan, you're the apple of me eye
You're a decent boy from Ireland, there's no one can deny
You're a rare'm, tare'm, devil may care'm, a decent Irish boy'
The day that I left Ireland, 'twas many months ago
I left my home in Ulster where the pigs and praties grow
And since I left old Patties Land, it's always been my plan
To let you people see that I'm a decent Irishman
'Hello Patsy Fagan' you can hear the girls all cry
'Hello Patsy Fagan, you're the apple of me eye
You're a decent boy from Ireland, there's no one can deny
You're a rare'm, tare'm, devil may care'm, a decent Irish boy'

Now if there's one among you who'd like to marry me
I'll take you to my little home across the Irish Sea
I'll dress you up in satin, and I'll do the best I can
To let the people see that I'm a decent Irishman
'Hello Patsy Fagan' you can hear the girls all cry
'Hello Patsy Fagan, you're the apple of me eye
You're a decent boy from Ireland, there's no one can deny
You're a rare'm, tare'm, devil may care'm, a decent Irish boy'
