Chorus
Now he’s living the life of Reilly
Ev’rybody respects him highly
Since he broke into society
Paddy wears a high silk hat
And looks like an Irish Diplomat
His friends just sent him an invitation
To lead the march on old Saint Patrick’s Day
He used to work at carrying bricks
But since he got into politics
Sure he’s living the life of Reilly
