    The ins and outs of politics of home and foreign rule,
    How nations should be governed how Empires rise and fall
    Go into Paddy the blacksmiths forge and there you will hear it all.
    Clink, Clank, clink, clank blow bellow blow.
    Till the fire is shining bright and the iron in a glow.
    Then Paddy with his hammer
    Comes ringing fast and free
    And he clinches all his arguments with one, two, three.
