Johnny Doughboy sailed away,
And it was his lucky day,
Even though the skies were gray above,
On that isle across the sea,
Johnny's making history
With his Yankee doodle arms of love.
Refrain
Johnny Doughboy found a rose in Ireland
Sure the fairest flow'r that Erin ever grew,
Oh the Blarney in her talk,
Took him back to old New York,
Where his mother spoke the sweetest blarney too.
Johnny Doughboy found a rose in Ireland,
And she stole his heart with smilin' eyes of blue,
He said "Darlin' 'tis my duty,
To make an American beauty,
Of a sweet Irish rose like you."
