About the Song
"It's the Same Old Shillelagh" is an Irish novelty song written by Pat White. Its subject is a young Irish-American who inherits his father's shillelagh. It was recorded by various artists of Irish-American ancestry, such as Billy Murray (1940) and most notably Bing Crosby (1945), typically with an effected Irish accent. The inherent violence and Irish stereotyping in the song were better tolerated in their day than they are in the 21st Century.    Download this sheet!
