With my bundle on my shoulder
Faith, there’s no man could be bolder
I’m leavin’ dear old Ireland without warnin’
For I lately took the notion
For to cross the briny ocean
And I start for Philadelphia in the mornin’.
There’s a girl called Kate Malone
Whom I’d hoped to call my own
And to see my little cabin floor adornin’
But my heart is sad and weary
How can she be Missis Leary
If I start for Philadelphia in the mornin’?
With my bundle on my shoulder
Faith, there’s no man could be bolder
I’m leavin’ dear old Ireland without warnin’
For I lately took the notion
For to cross the briny ocean
And I start for Philadelphia in the mornin’.
When they told me I must leave the place
I tried to keep a cheerful face
For to show my heart’s deep sorrow I was scornin’
But the tears will surely blind me
For the friends I leave behind me
And I start for Philadelphia in the mornin’.
But tho’ my bundle’s on my shoulder
And there’s no man could be bolder
Tho’ I’m leavin’ now the spot that I was born in
Yet some day I’ll take the notion
To come back across the ocean
To my home in dear old Ireland in the mornin’.
