Judy Garland sings "It's a Great Day for the Irish" in 1940's "Little Nellie Kelly"
The lyrics are:
Oh, I woke me up this morning, and I heard a joyful song
From the throats of happy Irishmen, a hundred-thousand strong.
Shure, it was the Hibernian Brigade,
Lining up for to start the big parade.
So I fetched me Sunday bonnet and the flag I love so well.
And I bought meself a shamrock, just to wear in me lapel.
Don't you know that today's March Seventeen?
It's the day for the wearing of the green!
It's a great day for the Irish, it's a great day for fair!
The sidewalks of New York are thick with blarney;
For shure, you'd think New York was Old Killarney.
It's a great day for the shamrock, for the flags in full array.
We're feeling so inspirish,
Shure because for all the Irish,
It's a great, great day.
Begosh and begorra, ev'ry Irish son and daughter,
Ev'ry good old Irish name and his relation,
They come from Tipperary, Donegal, and County Kerry,
But they all are here to join this celebration.
Now, there's Terrence O'Toole and his cousin, Phil Doherty,
Patrick O'Bogle and Mullin McGrew,
Mike Maley, Tim Dayley, and Barney O'Flagherty,
Daniel Doolan and Shamus Carewe.
Conleys and Donleys and Padraic O'Bannigan,
Ryans, O'Briens, McLaughlins, and Lynch,
McGloans and McFaddens and Mister Pat Flannagan,
Hogans and Glogans, McPhersons and Finch.
Clearys and Learys, Barney O'Hea,
Phalens and Whalens, Patrick O'Shea.
Cowans, McGowans, and Carricks and Garricks,
Mahoneys, Maloneys, O'Donnels, O'Connels
Are here to join the jubilee!
It's a great day for the Irish, it's a great day for fair.
Begosh, there's not a cop to stop a'raiding,
Begorra, all the cops are out parading!
It's a great day for the shamrock, for the flags in full array.
And as we go a-swinging, ev'ry Irish heart is singing:
It's a great, great day!
