The Prodigals - Paddy's Heaven lyrics

Crack the whip and smash the panes And lash the laggard while he strains And then when no one else remains For the road to heaven No one else to scream and shout And kick the bloody windows out Off to Paddy's heaven chorus: Lock the doors and strip the plough Paddy must be going now On the road and God knows how Off to Paddy's Heaven Here's a nice one from the start Kick the bugger's life apart And then I'll add with all my heart On the road to heaven And believe me when I say Come again another day You'll see me duck and weave and pray All for Paddy's Heaven And whatever is my name Surrogates will take the blame And others still will feel the pain On the road to heaven And while they wander in the night I'll sit and watch the pale moonlight And in my bed all tucked up tight I'll dream of Paddy's heaven And if should come as comes to all That someday others hear the call They may rise and I may fall And burn in Paddy's heaven.
