Since Maggie Dooley Learned The Hooley Hooley

Em B7 EmMaggie Dooley packed her grip and left Erin's Isle for a trip to Honolulu

G D7 GMaggie Dooley learned to dance and after a while came back home dressed like a Zulu

B7 Em B7 EmShe has a brand new walk, she talks Hawaiian talk

A7 D7She's made a Honolulu out of poor old County Cork

CHORUS:G C6 D7 G D7 G

Since Maggie Dooley learned the Hooley Hooley Ireland is fading away

B7 Em A7 D7The Sweeneys and Daleys have sold their shillelahs and bought ukuleles to play

G C6 D7 G C6 C7 B7The fat Miss Kelly wiggles just like jelly when those dancers sway

E7 A7And every colleen on the street is all dressed up like shredded wheat

G A7 D7 GSince Maggie Dooley learned the Hoo - - ley.

Verse 2:Em B7 EmMaggie Dooley has the people all off their nut with her new Hawaiian blarney

G D7 GEverybody's leaving town and building a hut on the lakes of old Killarney

B7 Em B7 EmI think it's a disgrace; the women of the place

A7 D7Are making wild men out of all the poor old Irish race [CHORUS]
