Who is the man who will spend or will even lend? 
Harrigan, that's me! 
Who is your friend when you find that you need a friend? 
Harrigan, that's me!
For I'm just as proud of my name, you see 
As an Emperor, Czar or a King could be 
Who is the man helps a man ev'ry time he can? 
Harrigan, that's me!
 
H--A--double R--I--G--A--N spells Harrigan 
Proud of all the Irish blood that's in me 
Divil' a man can say a word agin' me 
H--A--double R--I--G--A--N you see 
Is a name that a shame never has been connected with 
Harrigan, that's me!
 
Who is the man never stood for a gadabout? 
Harrigan, that's me! 
Who is the man that the town's simply mad about? 
Harrigan that's me! 
They ladies and babies are fond of me 
I'm fond of them, too, in return, you see 
Who is the gent that's deserving a monument? 
Harrigan, that's me!
 
H--A--double R--I--G--A--N spells Har-ri-gan 
Proud of all the Irish blood that's in me 
Di-vil' a man can say a word agin' me 
H--A--double R--I--G--A--N you see 
Is a name that a shame never has been connected with 
Harrigan, that's me!
