THE GOLDEN JUBILEE
CHORUS
Put on your old
knee-britches and your coat of emerald green
Take off that hat me darlin' Pat, put on your old caibin
For today's our Golden
Wedding and I'll have you all to know
Just how we looked when
we were wed, fifty years ago
Oh, well do I remember,
how we danced on the village green
You held me in your arms,
dear Pat, and called me your cailin
Your hair was like a
raven's wing, but now it's turning grey
Come over here old
sweetheart dear, and hear what I've to say
And well do I remember,
when first I was your bride
In the little chapel on
the hill where we stood side by side
Of good friends we've had
many, of troubles we've had few
Come over here old
sweetheart dear, and here's what you must do
