Lyrics | Go Over the Top with Reilly Verse: Who’s the greatest Irish man that’s in the rank and file? Timithy Reilly, sure he’s the man. And who’s the man can always push the enemy back a mile? TImithy Reilly, you bet he can. The Kaiser said this world is one big watermelon fine, And no one else can have a piece, this melon is all mine. But who when he gets through won’t even leave old Bill the Rhine? Timithy Reilly, sure he’s the man. Refrain: Go over the top with Reilly for Reilly knows the way. Go over the top with Reilly, don’t give warning. Ev’ry fighting lad’ll be fighting mad and follow along with his fighting tod. Go over the top with Reilly in the morning. Verse: Who’s the man to brave the smell of old limburger cheese? Timithy Reilly, without a mask. And who’s the mick can trick and lick our country’s enemies? Timithy Reilly, how could you ask. Sure Reilly needed shoes one day to give his feet a treat, Says he’ll kill a German and I’ll grab his pair so neat. Who killed eighteen before |
