Oh me name is MacNamara
I'm the leader of the band
Although we're few in numbers
we're the finest in the land
We play at wakes and weddings
and at every fancy ball
And when we play the funerals
we play the March from Saul
Oh the drums go bang and the cymbals
clang and the horns they blaze away
McCarthy pumps the old bassoon
while I the pipes do play
And Henessee Tennessee tootles the
flute and the music is something grand
A credit to old Ireland is MacNamara's band
Right now we are rehearsing for a very swell affair
The annual celebration all the gentry will be there
When General Grant to
Ireland came he took me by the hand
Says he I never saw the likes of MacNamara's Band
Oh the drums go bang and the cymbals
clang and the horns they blaze away
McCarthy pumps the old bassoon
while I the pipes do play
And Henessee Tennessee tootles the
flute and the music is something grand
A credit to old Ireland is MacNamara's band
Oh my name is Uncle Julius and from
Sweden I did come
To play with MacNamara's Band
and beat the big bass drum
And when I march along the street
the ladies think I'm grand
They shout There's Uncle Julius
playing with an Irish band
Oh I wear a bunch of shamrocks
and a uniform of green
And I'm the funniest lookin' Swede
that you have ever seen
There is O'Brians O'Ryans O'Sheehans
and Meehans they come from Ireland
But by yimminy I'm the only Swede in
MacNamara's Band
Oh the drums go bang and the cymbals
clang and the horns they blaze away
McCarthy pumps the old bassoon while
I the pipes do play
And Henessee Tennessee tootles
the flute and the music is something grand
A credit to old Ireland is MacNamara's band
