Patrick's Day St. Patrick's Day is here, you see. We'll pick some
shamrocks, one, two, three. We'll count the leaves and look them over, And
maybe find a four-leafed clover. I'll sew green buttons on my vest, Green
for St. Patrick is the best. I'll wear a green hat, very high, And dance
a jig--at least I'll try!

The Wearin' O' the Green Today is the day fer the wearin' o' the
green. Today is the day when the little people are seen. Today is St. Patrick's
Day, so if ye'r Irish me lad, Join the celebratin' fer the grandest time ta'
be had.
Ya' put yer hand up in the
air, the other hand on your hip. Ya' tap yer toe, ya' tap yer heel, ya' bounce
yer knee a wee bit. Ya' prance 'n dance around the room, n' circle one two
three. The saints be praised, I must admit, ya' all look Irish ta' me.

I'll Wear a Shamrock St. Patrick's Day is with us, The day
when all that's seen To right and left and everywhere Is green, green, green!
And
Irish tunes they whistle And Irish songs they sing, To-day each Irish lad
walks out As proud as any king. I'll
wear a four-leaf shamrock In my coat, the glad day through, For my father
and mother are Irish And I am Irish too! 
Unicorn
A long time ago when the Earth
was green, There was more kinds of animals then you've ever seen. And
they'd run around free while the world was being born. The loveliest of all
was the Unicorn! There was green alligators
and long necked geese, Hump back camels and chimpanzees. Cats and rats
and elephants but sure a you're born, The loveliest of all was the Unicorn!
But the Lord seen some sinnin' and
it caused him pain. He says, "Stand back, I'm gonna make it rain. So
hey, Brother Noah, I'll tell you what to do. Go and build me a floating zoo."
"You'll take two alligators and
a couple of geese, Two hump back camels and two chimpanzees. Two cats,
two rats, two elephants but as sure as you're born, Noah, don't you forget
my unicorns!" Well, Noah looked
out through the drivin' rain, But the unicorns was hidin'-playin' silly games.
They were kickin' and a-splashin' while the rain was pourin', Oh them
foolish unicorns. "So you take
two alligators and a couple of geese, Two hump back camels and two chimpanzees.
Two cats, two rats, two elephants but as sure as you're born, Noah, don't
you forget my unicorns." And
the the ark started movin' and it drifted with the tide, And the unicorns
looked up from the rock and cried. And the water came up and sort of floated
them away, That's why you've never seen a unicorn to this day. You'll
see a lot of alligators and a whole mess of geese, You'll see hump back camels
and chimpanzees. You'll see cats and rats and elephants but as sure as you're
born, You're never gonna see no unicorn.
