The Two Bob's 'Paddy McGinty's Goat' 1917 78 rpm

Witten in 1917 by Bert Lee (who had also written 'Hello Who's Your Lady Friend' and 'Good-Bye ee') and R P Weston ('What A Mouth', 'Henry The Eighth' and 'When Father Papered The Parlour'. They wrote it for the popular American vaudeville duo Bob Adams and Bob Alden known as The Two Bobs who had come to the UK in 1914 and became big stars in music hall recording first for Columbia then from 1916 for Winner. 'Paddy McGinty's Goat' was revived in the 60's by Val Doonican, this original version however has the goat beating off German submarine's of the coast of Ireland and fighting with the Irish Guards on the Western Front. Mister Patrick McGinty, an Irishman of note Came into a fortune, so bought himself a goat Said he, 'Sure, of goat's milk I mean to have my fill But when he got his nanny home he found it was a bill. Refrain: And now all the ladies who live in Killaloo Are all wearing bustles like their mothers used to do They each wear a bolster beneath the petticoat And leave the rest to providence and Paddy Mc Ginty's goat. Mick Riley he went to the races t'other day He won twenty dollars and shouted 'Hip- Hooray.' He held up the note shouting 'Look at what I've got.' The goat came up and grabbed at it and swallowed all the lot Refrain: 'He's eaten my banknote,' said Micky with the jump They ran for the doctor, he brought a stomach pump He pumped and he pumped for that twenty dollar note But all he got was ninepence out of Paddy McGinty's goat. On the West Coast of Ireland, one Morning there was seen, As plain as a pike staff, a Germany Submarine. The Coast Guard, Mahoney went off into a fit, Said Paddy McGintys Goat, it's up to me to do me bit. He dived into the water, as frisky as a Whale, He Swam around that U Boat, and he wagged his little tail. He up with his horns, and he jabbed them in the Boat, And he sent those dirty dogs to XXXX, did Paddy McGinty's Goat. Now the brave Irish Guards, though you'd think it was romance, Adopted the goat and they took him out to France. The day that they landed, he heard the bugle blow. He ducked his little cranium and ran to meet the foe. The Germans retreated and hurriedly they fled, And holding their noses, they tumbled over dead. "Ach," said the Kaiser, "there's poison gas afloat." It was only the effluvium from Paddy McGinty's goat. Now old Paddy's goat had a wond'rous appetite, One morning for breakfast he ate dynamite. A large box of matches he swallowed all serene; Then he washed the matches down with nitroglycerin He lay down by the fire he didn't give a hang, He swallowed a spark, and he went off with a BANG And if you go to heav'n, you can bet a dollar note, If there's an angel there with whiskers on is Paddy McGinty's goat. The nitroglycerin is mispronounced as nitrogrycerin, and obviously not picked up during recording and pressed with the mistake. This is a later 1920's pressing of the 1917 recording.
