Arrah Go On I'm Gonna Go Back To Oregon

Pat McCarty, hale and hearty
Living in Oregon
Heard a lot of talk about the great New York
He left the farm
Where all was calm and landed on old Broadway
He coaxed a little Mary Ann into a swell cafe
The waiter brought the card and
Said, "what will you have, " to Pat
Then Pat looked at the prices and
He said "I'll have me hat"

Pat McCarty broke the party
Up into smithereens said "your bill of fare
Would give a bull scare
I want to eat, but I repeat, I
Don't want to buy the place, "
And Mary Ann was sitting with
Blushes on her face
She said, "I'll have a little steak
That's all I want right now"
And Pat said, "what it costs for steaks
Why I could buy a cow"
Arrah go on, I'm gonna go back to Oregon
Arrah go on, I'm gonna go back and stay
I could buy the horses many a bale of hay
For all that I'd have to pay to
Feed a chicken on old Broadway
Arrah go on, there's somebody back in Oregon
Who calls me Uncle Pat, not Uncle John

Arrah go on, go way, go wid yer
Go way, go wid yer go way, go on
Arrah go on, I'm gonna go back to Oregon
