add a verse to "Pat Works on the Railway"

[Joe]

I though we were going to have a tough time w/ 1850. As in "In Eighteen-hundred and fifty umm."

Never mind ElizaRose, about skipping 1852---it was a quiet year ;D

[afanoffiona]

In eighteen hundred and fifty four
My final child went out the door
And then my life was such a bore
While working on the railway.

Fil-li-me-oo-ri-oo-ee-aye
Fil-li-me-oo-ri-oo-ee-aye
Fil-li-me-oo-ri-oo-ee-aye
While working on the railway.

God Bless,
afanoffiona

[afanoffiona]

In eighteen hundred and fifty five,
I accidently hit a bee hive
and every bee tried to eat me alive
while working on the railway.

Fil-li-me-oo-ri-oo-ee-aye
Fil-li-me-oo-ri-oo-ee-aye
Fil-li-me-oo-ri-oo-ee-aye
While working on the railway.

God Bless,
afanoffiona

[Ginny]

Oh man we must be getting desperate....bee hives???

lol-I'm just kidding affanoffiona...they are quite creative actually. I would have never thought to rhyme bee hive with five.

I'm quite the hypocrite...I've yet to write a verse.

And everyone's going to hate me soon

Cheers,
Ginny

[faerie]

hahah, how could we hate you ginny?? but yes you should write a verse before this poor guy dies, man he's been through alot, although I think the order is kinda off I belive at one point he leaves the railway, then comes back again..hmm think that may have been my fault, so Pat is confused as well.

Tia ;D

So here's what we have so far:

Joe:
In eighteen hundred and forty-eight
Paddy junior pulled his weight
Starting school, he just can't wait
To work upon the railway.

Fil-li-me-oo-ri-oo-ee-aye
Fil-li-me-oo-ri-oo-ee-aye
Fil-li-me-oo-ri-oo-ee-aye
To work upon the railway.
----------------------------------------
Joe:
In eighteen hundred and forty-nine
I did enough and done my time
I'm California-bound to a gold mine
Stopped workin' on the railway.

Fil-li-me-oo-ri-oo-ee-aye
Fil-li-me-oo-ri-oo-ee-aye
Fil-li-me-oo-ri-oo-ee-aye
Stopped workin' on the railway
----------------------------------------
ElizaRose:
It's "Pat do this" and "Pat do that,"
Without a stocking or cravat,
Nothing but an old straw hat
While Pat worked on the railway.
----------------------------------------
afanoffiona:
In eighteen hundred-and-five-and zero
I went back home as a hero.
But then they treated me like Nero.
Cause I worked upon the railway.

Fil-li-me-oo-ri-oo-ee-aye
Fil-li-me-oo-ri-oo-ee-aye
Fil-li-me-oo-ri-oo-ee-aye
cause I worked upon the railway
----------------------------------------
faerie:
In eighteen hundred and fifty one
I left home and brought my son
He helped me get the work all done
As we worked upon the railway

Fil-li-me-oo-ri-oo-ee-aye
Fil-li-me-oo-ri-oo-ee-aye
Fil-li-me-oo-ri-oo-ee-aye
As we worked upon the railway
----------------------------------------
Jason:
In 1852,
I left the land of the red, white, and blue.
And to Cape Breton I flew.
After completing the railray.

Fil-li-me-oo-ri-oo-ee-aye
Fil-li-me-oo-ri-oo-ee-aye
Fil-li-me-oo-ri-oo-ee-aye
After completing the railway.
----------------------------------------
ElizaRose:
In eighteen hundred and fifty-three
I didn't like the state of me
and all me mates they did agree
Pat stop working on the railway

Fil-li-me-oo-ri-oo-ee-aye
Fil-li-me-oo-ri-oo-ee-aye
Fil-li-me-oo-ri-oo-ee-aye
Pat stop working on the railway
----------------------------------------
afanoffiona:
In eighteen hundred and fifty four
My final child went out the door
And then my life was such a bore
While working on the railway.

Fil-li-me-oo-ri-oo-ee-aye
Fil-li-me-oo-ri-oo-ee-aye
Fil-li-me-oo-ri-oo-ee-aye
While working on the railway.

sounds pretty good, now we just need to all get together and perform it

ok, I'm skiping to 1868:

In eighteen hundred and sixty eight,
I got to Celtic Colours a little late,
And then was docked and fired,
So that's why Pat's not working on the railway

Fil-li-me-oo-ri-oo-ee-aye
Fil-li-me-oo-ri-oo-ee-aye
Fil-li-me-oo-ri-oo-ee-aye
While working on the railway

how is it do you think?

Good, but your third line should rhyme with 'eight' and 'late'.
Might I suggest
And Pat did never meet his date


Joe

[Northern_Lights]

how's this?

In eighteen hundred and sixty eight,
I got to Celtic Colours a little late,
And Pat was filled with hate,
So that's why Pat's not working on the railway

Fil-li-me-oo-ri-oo-ee-aye
Fil-li-me-oo-ri-oo-ee-aye
Fil-li-me-oo-ri-oo-ee-aye
While working on the railway

[Joe]

Sounds good, NL !
