(Sung To: "If You're Happy and You Know It") On St. Patrick's Day you might see a shamrock green
On St. Patrick's Day you might see a shamrock green
If you close your eyes and wish, and pretend you are Irish,
On St. Patrick's Day you might see a shamrock green.
On Saint Patrick's day, you might see a leprechaun.
On Saint Patrick's day, you might see a leprechaun.
If you close your eyes and wish, and pretend you are Irish
On St. Patrick's Day, you might see a leprechaun.
On St. Patrick's Day you might see a pot of gold
On St. Patrick's Day you might see a pot of gold
If you close your eyes and wish, and pretend you are Irish,
On St. Patrick's Day you might see a pot of gold.
On St. Patrick's Day, you might see a rainbow bright.
On St. Patrick's Day, you might see a rainbow bright.
If you close your eyes and wish, and pretend you are Irish,
On St. Patrick's Day, you might see a rainbow bright. (Sung To: "Mary Had a Little Lamb") I'm a little leprechaun, leprechaun, leprechaun
I'm a little leprechaun, who likes to hide my gold.
I dress in green from head to toe, head to toe, head to toe
I dress in green from head to toe, I wear green all day long
You'll never catch me or my gold, not my gold, not my gold
You'll never catch me or my gold I hide it much too well A leprechaun is small and green, (Put hand to indicate a short leprechaun)
He hides where he cannot be seen (Cover eyes)
But if you catch one on this day (Shake finger),
He must give his gold away. (jump up and down) (Sung to: "I'm a Little Teapot") I'm a little leprechaun, dressed in green,
The tiniest man, that you ever seen.
If you ever catch me, so it's told,
I'll give you my pot of gold. (Sung To: "Yankee Doodle") Patrick is a leprechaun, He has a sack of gold
He hides it in a special place, Between to stumps, I'm told.
I think I saw Patrick Out in the woods at play
He smiled and laughed and winked his eye, And then he ran away
Don't try to follow Patrick, To find his treasure sack
He'll twist and jump and run away, and he never will come back. Leprechaun stew, Leprechaun stew,
If I don't get some, I don't know what I'll do.
Give away my pot of gold, Give away my shoe.
But don't give away my Leprechaun Stew. (Sung To: "The Bear Went Over the Mountain") We'll dance a jig for the Irish
We'll dance a jig for the Irish
We'll dance a jig for the Irish
On this St. Patrick's Day

We're wearing green for the Irish
We're wearing green for the Irish
We're wearing green for the Irish
On this St. Patrick's Day

Me Mither and Fither were Irish
Me Mither and Fither were Irish Me
Mither and Fither were Irish
And I am Irish too

We kept a pig in the parlor
We kept a pig in the parlor
We kept a pig in the parlor
And he is Irish too.

The Leprechauns are marching!
They're marching through the hall
They're marching on the ceiling
They're marching down the wall.
They're marching two by two
And now it's four by four.
You say you cannot see them.
Look out! Here comes some more One green shamrock, bright and emerald green,
Another one sprouted, and then there were two.
Two green shamrocks, growing beneath a tree;
Another one sprouted and then there were three.
Three green shamrocks, by the cottage door;
Another one sprouted, and then there were four.
Four green shamrocks, in the morning dew,
Another one sprouted, and then there were five.
Five little shamrocks, near a beehive
Think of all the luck these shamrocks will bring. A leprechaun is small and green, (Put hand to indicate a short leprechaun)
He hides where he cannot be seen (Cover eyes)
But if you catch one on this day (Shake finger),
He must give his gold away. (jump up and down)
