the best in the house is none too good for reilly - george j. gaskin lyrics

a hero is dan reilly if ever there was one
he was wounded twenty*four times at the battle of bull run
without a cent he is content to drink mixed ale with keilly
but pension day the best in house is none to good for reilly

the best in the house is none to good for reilly (for reilly!)
when he gets his pension cashed at keillys (at keillys!)
he has money for to pay so they lеt him have his way
and the best in thе house is none to good for reilly

rich hobson sunk the merrimac and schley he did the rest
it was reilly who got sampson to go and take a rest
he then called bob evans who praised him very highly
and you can bet that the best on the ship was none to good for reilly

when reilly went to egypt, it put him in a trance
to see the streets of cairo and the oriental dance
the maidens gathered round him and each one eyed him shyly
and the warmest baby in the bunch, eloped with mr. reilly

the best in the house is none to good for reilly (for reilly!)
when he gets his pension cashed at keillys (at keillys!)
he has money for to pay so they let him have his way
and the best in the house is none to good for reilly
now reilly’s back in new york oh my but he’s a sight
at the elegant hotel waldorf he was there the other night
the four hundred gathered ’round him then says mrs. astore shyly
shin fane, shin fane the best in the house was none to good for reilly
