Patsy Oree Ay
In eighteen hundred and fifty one
American railroad just begun
American railroad just begun
Working on the railroad.
Cho: Patsy-o-ree-o-ree-ay
Patsy-o-ree-o-ree-ay
Patsy-o-ree-o-ree-ay
Working on the railroad.
repeat verse and chorus, using:
1852 looking around for something to do
1853 railroad company accepted me
1854 found my back was mighty sore
1855 found myself more dead than alive
1856 stepped on a pile of dynamite sticks
1857 found myself on the way to heaven
1858 pickin' the lock at the pearly gate
1859 floating around in the clouds sublime
