Two
Irishmen are in the Wild West. They enter Dodge City and notice
a sign in a shop saying 'Indian scalps-$10 each.' They enter
the shop and are given a rifle, ammunition and told that for
every Indian scalp they bring back they will get $10.
So they go out into the desert and hide behind a rock beside
an oasis in the hope that an Indian would come to drink.
Sure enough, 10 minutes later a brave approaches on his
horse and gets down to drink. Paddy shoots the Indian and
goes over to scalp him.
Just as Paddy gets out his knife, Murphy looks up and sees
up and sees Chief Geronimo and his 100,000 braves on a ridge.
"Don't look now" says Murphy, "But we are
about to become millionaires!"
Yup. Barack Obama, 44th President of the good old
USA is as Irish as Bono. His great-great-grandfather came from Moneygall
in County Offaly.
To celebrate, we present the song 'There's No One as Irish as Barack Obama',
sung by Hardy Drew and the Nancy Boys. It became an instant big hit on
YouTube, getting nearly 400,000 views in the first two weeks.
The band have been invited to Washington DC by Irish American Democrats
to perform at Obama's inauguration party on 19th of Janurary 2009. Go
Irish!
So get practising! To help you out, here's the words
of the song:
