Finnegan's Wake - Waxies Dargle/The Royal Irish Rangers[00:00:00]
Tim finnegan lived in walking street[00:00:02]
A gentle irishman mighty odd[00:00:06]
Had a beautiful both rich and sweet[00:00:10]
But to rise in the world he carried a hod[00:00:13]
When you see he'd a sort of a tippling way[00:00:17]
But the love for the liquor poor Tim was born[00:00:21]
To help him on when his work his day[00:00:25]
He'd a drop of the craythur every morn[00:00:30]
Whack fol the dah now dance to yer[00:00:32]
Partner around the flure yer trotters shake[00:00:34]
Wasn't it the truth I told you[00:00:37]
Lots of fun at finnegan's wake[00:00:39]
One morning Tim got rather full[00:00:44]
His head felt heavy which made him shake[00:00:46]
He fell from a ladder and he broke his skull[00:00:48]
And they carried him home his corpse to wake[00:00:51]
Rolled him up in a nice clean sheet[00:00:53]
And laid him out upon the bed[00:00:55]
A bottle of water at his feet[00:00:58]
And a barrel of whiskery at his head[00:01:00]
Whack fol the dah now dance to yer[00:01:02]
Partner around the flure yer trotters shake[00:01:04]
Wasn't it the truth I told you[00:01:07]
Lots of fun at finnegan's wake[00:01:09]
His friends assembled at the wake[00:01:13]
When mrs finnegan called for lunch[00:01:16]
First she brought in tay and cake[00:01:18]
Then pipes tobacco and whiskey punch[00:01:20]
Biddy O'brien began to cry[00:01:23]
Such a nice clean corpse did you ever see[00:01:25]
Tim avourneen why did you die[00:01:27]
Hould your gob said paddy mcgee[00:01:30]
Whack fol the dah now dance to yer[00:01:32]
Partner around the flure yer trotters shake[00:01:34]
Wasn't it the truth I told you[00:01:36]
Lots of fun at finnegan's wake[00:01:39]
Then maggie O'connor took up the job[00:01:42]
Biddy says she you're wrong I'm sure[00:01:45]
Biddy gave her a belt in the[00:01:47]
Gob and left her sprawling on the floor[00:01:49]
Then the war did soon engage[00:01:52]
It was woman to woman and man to man[00:01:54]
Shillelagh law was all the rage[00:01:56]
And a row and a ruction soon began[00:01:58]
Whack fol the dah now dance to yer[00:02:01]
Partner around the flure yer trotters shake[00:02:03]
Wasn't it the truth I told you[00:02:05]
Lots of fun at finnegan's wake[00:02:08]
Then mickey maloney raised his head when[00:02:11]
A nucket of whiskey flew at him[00:02:14]
It missed and falling on the bed[00:02:18]
The liquor scattered over Tim[00:02:21]
Tim revives see how he rises[00:02:25]
Timothy rising from the bed[00:02:28]
Saying whittle your whiskey around[00:02:32]
Like blazes undering[00:02:34]
Do ye think I'm dead[00:02:35]
Whack fol the dah now dance to yer[00:02:37]
Partner around the flure yer trotters shake[00:02:39]
Wasn't it the truth I told you[00:02:41]
Lots of fun at finnegan's wake[00:02:44]
