P Stands For Paddy Songtext / Lyric

As I walked out on a bright May morn'

To take a pleasant walk

I sat down on an old stone wall

To hear two lovers talk

To hear what they might say, my friend

Hear what they might say

So I might learn a little about love

Before I go away



"Don't sit down beside me", he said

"Not now or any time

I hear you have another lad

Your heart's no longer mine"

"Your heart's no longer mine", he said

"Your heart's no longer mine

I hear you have another lad

Your heart's no longer mine"






"P" stands for Paddy, I suppose

"J" for my love John

"W" stands for the false Willy-O

And Johnny's the fairest man

Johnny's the fairest man, he said

Johnny's the fairest man

And I don't care what anybody says

For Johnny's the fairest man



"I'll go and climb a tall fine tree

Up to a wild bird's nest

When I'll come down I'll care some more

About the girl I love the best

The girl I love best", he said

"The girl that I love best

When I'll come down I'll care some more

About the girl I love the best"



"P" stands for Paddy, I suppose

"J" for my love John

"W" stands for the false Willy-O

And Johnny's the fairest man

Johnny's the fairest man, he said

Johnny's the fairest man

And I don't care what anybody says

For Johnny's the fairest man



As I walked out on a bright May morn'

To take a pleasant walk

I sat down on an old stone wall

To hear two lovers talk

To hear what they might say, my friend

Hear what they might say

So I might learn a little about love

Before I go away



"P" stands for Paddy, I suppose

"J" for my love John

"W" stands for the false Willy-O

And Johnny's the fairest man

Johnny's the fairest man, he said

Johnny's the fairest man

And I don't care what anybody says

For Johnny's the fairest man



"P"

"J"

"W"

And Johnny's the fairest man

Johnny's the fairest man, he said

Johnny's the fairest man

And I don't care what anybody says

For Johnny's the fairest man
