Where Do We Go From Here

Abstract

VERSE 1Paddy Mack drove a hackUp and down Broadway,Pat had one expression and he’d use it ev’ry day;Anytime he’d grab a fare, to take them for a ride,Paddy jumped upon the seat, cracked his whip and cried: CHORUS 1“Where do we go from here, boys,Where do we go from here?Anywhere from Harlem to a Jersey city pier;”When Pat would spy a pretty girl, he’d whisper in her ear,“Oh joy, Oh boy,Where do we go from here?”here?” VERSE 2One fine day, on Broadway,Pat was driving fast,When the street was blown to piecesBy a subway blast;Down the hole poor Paddy went, a thinkin’ of his past,The he says, says he, I think these words will be my last: CHORUS 2“Where do we go from here, boys,Where do we go from here?Paddy’s neck was in the wreck, but still he had no fear;He saw a dead man next to him and whispered in his ear,“Oh joy, Oh boy,Where do we go from here?” VERSE #First of all, at the call,When the war began,Pat enlisted in the army as a fighting man;When the drills began, they’d walk a hundred miles a day,Tho’ the rest got tired, Paddy always used to say: CHORUS 3“Where do we go from here, boys,Where do we go from here?Slip a pill to Kaiser Bill and make him shed a tear;And when we see the enemy we’ll shoot them in the rear,He saw a dead man next to him and whispered in his ear,“Oh joy, Oh boy,Where do we go from here?
