[VERSE 1]
Well I[G] am a modern hairo: [Em]my name is Paddy Kearney;
Not[C] long ago, I landed from t[G]he bogs of sweet Killarney;
I[G] used to cry out: SOAP FAT! [Em]Be kase that was my trade, sir,
Till I[C]'listed for a Soger-boy [G]wid Corcoran's brigade, sir.

[CHORUS]
For to[D] fight for Uncle Sam;
He'll[G] lade us on to glory, O!
He'll[C] lade us on to glory, O!
To[G] save t[D]he Stripes[G] and Stars.
Ora,[G] once in regimentals, [Em]my mind it did bewildher.
I[C] bid good-bye to Biddy dear, a[G]nd all the darling childher;
Whoo! says[G] I, the Irish Volunteers t[Em]he divil a one afraid is,
Be[C]kase we've got the soger bould,[G] McClellan, for to lade us.

For to[D] fight for Uncle Sam;
He'll[G] lade us on to glory, O!

[VERSE 2]
We[G] soon got into battle:[Em] we made a charge of bay'nets:
The[C] Rebel blaggards soon gave way: th[G]ey fell as thick as paynuts.
Och[G] hone! the slaughter that we made, [Em]bedad, it was delighting!
For, the I[C]rish lads in action are t[G]he divil's boys for fighting.

[CHORUS]
For to[D] fight for Uncle Sam;
He'll[G] lade us on to glory, O!
He'll[C] lade us on to glory, O!
To[G] save t[D]he Stripes[G] and Stars.

[VERSE 3]
Och, [G]sure, we never will give in, in any[Em] sort of manner,
Un[C]til the South comes back agin, benea[D]th the Starry-Banner;
And[G] if John Bull should interfere, he'd suf[Em]fer for it truly;
For[C] soon the Irish Volunteers would giv[G]e him Ballyhooly.

[CHORUS]
For to[D] fight for Uncle Sam;
He'll[G] lade us on to glory, O!
He'll[C] lade us on to glory, O!

[VERSE 4]
And [G]now, before I ind my song, thi[Em]s free advice I'll tender:
We[C] soon will use the Rebels up a[G]nd make them all surrender,
And,[G] once again, the Stars and Stripes wi[Em]ll to the breeze be swellin',
If[C] Uncle Abe will give us back o[G]ur darling boy McClellan.

[CHORUS]
Oh! we'll follow [D]Little Mac

He'll lade us on to glory, O!
He'll[C] lade us on to glory, O!
To[G] save t[D]he Stripes[G] and Stars.
He'll[G] lade us on to glory, O!
He'll[C] lade us on to glory, O!
To[G] save the [D]Stripes and S[G]tars.
