Collection of Irish Song Lyrics
Whack Fol the Diddle
Oh I'll sing you a song of Peace and Love
Whack fol the diddle lo the di do day
of a land that rules all lands above
Whack fol the diddle lo the di do day
may Peace and plenty be her share
who kelp our homes from want and care
Oh, God Bless England is our prayer
Whack fol the diddle lo the di do day
When we sere savage fierce and wild
Whack fol the diddle lo the di do day
she came as a mother to her child
Whack fol the diddle lo the di do day
she gently raised us from the slime
and kept our hands from Hellish crime
and she sent us to Heaven in our own good time
Whack fol the diddle lo the di do day
Oh Our fathers of't were naughty boys
Whack fol the diddle lo the di do day
for pikes and guns are dangerous toys
Whack fol the diddle lo the di do day
From Baile Atha Buidhe to Peter's Hill
They made old England cry her fill
Oh but old Britannia loves us still
Whack fol the diddle lo the di do day
Oh Irishmen forget the past
Whack fol the diddle lo the di do day
and think of the day that's coming fast
Whack fol the diddle lo the di do day
when we shall all be civilized
neat and clean and well advised
Oh, won't Mother England be surprised
Whack fol the diddle lo the di do day
