The Kellys

Three weeks ago last Tuesday
 I left me home in Cork
 To find me uncle Martin Kelly
 Living in New York
 I landed in Hoboken
 And began without delay
 To find me uncle's residence
 Located in Broadway
 I went to their directory
 Me uncle for to find
 But I found so many Kellys there
 That I nearly lost me mind
 So, I went and asked directions
 From a friendly German Jew
 But he says, "Please, excuse me
 But me name is Kelly too"
 And there's Kelly, the barman, Kelly the carman
 Kelly the sailor who came from Donegal
 Kelly from Derry, Kelly from Kerry
 But the Kelly I was looking for, I could not find at all
 ♪
 I travelled up to Boston
 That city of great fame
 I heard the Kellys living there
 Had made themselves a name
 The Kellys run the statehouse
 The Kellys run the banks
 The police and fire department
 Sure, the Kellys fill the ranks
 Dan Kelly runs the railroad
 John Kelly runs the seas
 Kate Kelly runs the suffragettes
 And she looks right good to me
 Well, I went and asked directions
 From a naturalised Chinese
 But he says, "Please, excuse me
 But me name it is Kelly"
 And there's Kelly from Dublin
 Kelly from Sligo
 Little Mickey Kelly
 Who came from the County Clare
 Sure, Kelly built the pyramids
 With good old Galway granite
 And when Kelly discovered the North Pole
 Sure, he found Pat Kelly there
