Johnny Doughboy Found A Rose In Ireland

John-ny Dough-boy sailed a-way,
And it was his luck-y day,
E-ven though the skies were gray a - bove,______

On that isle a - cross the sea,
John-ny's mak-ing his-to-ry
With his Yan-kee doo-dle arms of love.____

Refrain
John-ny Dough-boy found  a  rose   in   Ire - land,___
Sure the fair-est flow'r that  Er-in ev-er grew,___
Oh the Blar-ney in her talk,
Took him back to old New York,
Where his moth-er spoke the sweet-est blar-ney too.___

John-ny Dough-boy found a rose in Ire - land,____
And she stole his heart with smil - in' eyes of blue,____
He said "Dar - lin' 'tis my du-ty, 
To make an A-mer - i - can beau-ty,
Of a sweet Ir - ish rose like you."
