Oh, 50 years ago, me father left old Erins shore
He landed here, a Shillelagh in hand and devil a little more
He got a job, then got a wife, then a family
And then he died and left his old shillelagh stick to me
 
Sure it's the same old shillelagh me father brought from Ireland
And devil a man prouder than he, as he walked with it in his hand
He'd lead the band on Paddy's Day and twirl it 'round his mitt
And devil a bit, we'd laughed at it or Dad would have a fit
 
Sure with the same old shillelagh, me father could lick a dozen men
As fast as they'd get up be gory, he'd knock 'em down again
And many's the time he used it on me to make me understand
The same old shillelagh, me father brought from Ireland
 
I'm going on the police force, it's the only thing to do
Instead of having one night stick before I'll have two
If there's a fight I'll be alright, nobody bothers me
Because I have the old Shillelagh me father gave to me
 
Sure it's the same old shillelagh me father brought from Ireland
And devil a man prouder than he, as he walked with it in his hand
He'd lead the band on Paddy's Day and twirl it 'round his mitt
And devil a bit, we'd laughed at it or Dad would have a fit
 
Sure with the same old shillelagh me father could lick a dozen men
As fast as they'd get up be gory, he'd knock 'em down again
And many's the time he used it on me to make me understand
The same old shillelagh me father brought from Ireland
Sure it's the same old shillelagh me father brought from Ireland
And devil a man prouder than he, as he walked with it in his hand
He'd lead the band on Paddy's Day and twirl it 'round his mitt
And devil a bit, we'd laughed at it or Dad would have a fit
 
Sure with the same old shillelagh me father could lick a dozen men
As fast as they'd get up be gory, he'd knock 'em down again
And many's the time he used it on me to make me understand
The same old shillelagh me father brought from Ireland
The same old shillelagh he brought from Ireland
