Tim finnegan lived in watling street[00:00:00]

A gentle irishman mighty odd[00:00:03]

He'd a beautiful brogue so rich and sweet[00:00:05]

To rise in the world he carried a hod[00:00:07]

See he'd sort of a tipplin' way[00:00:09]

With love for the liquor poor tim was born[00:00:11]

To help him a man with his work each day[00:00:13]

He'd a drop of the craythin' every morn[00:00:15]

Whack fol de dah[00:00:17]

Now dance to your partner[00:00:17]

Welt the floor your trotters shake[00:00:18]

Wasn't it the truth they told ye lots of fun[00:00:20]

At finnegan's wake[00:00:23]

One morning tim got rather full[00:00:24]

His head felt heavy which made him shake[00:00:26]

Fell from a ladder and he broke his skull[00:00:28]

They carried him home his corpse to wake[00:00:30]

Rolled him up in a nice clean sheet[00:00:31]

And laid him out upon the bed[00:00:33]

A gallon of whiskey at his feet[00:00:35]

And a bottle of porter at his head[00:00:37]

Whack fol de dah[00:00:39]

Now dance to your partner[00:00:40]

Welt the floor your trotters shake[00:00:41]

Wasn't it the truth they told ye lots of fun[00:00:43]

At finnegan's wake[00:00:45]

His friends assembled at the wake[00:00:46]

And misses finnegan called for lunch[00:00:48]

First she brought in tea and cake[00:00:50]

Then pipes tobacco and whiskey punch[00:00:52]

Biddy o'brien began to cry[00:00:54]

Such a nice clean corpse did you ever see[00:00:55]

Tim me boy yadda hoy dida ho yada[00:00:57]

Arrah hold your gobâ said patty megee[00:00:59]

Whack fol de dah[00:01:01]

Now dance to your partner[00:01:02]

Welt the floor your trotters shake[00:01:03]

Wasn't it the truth they told ye lots of fun[00:01:05]

At finnegan's wake[00:01:07]

Then o'connor took up the job[00:01:08]

Arrah biddy says she ye're wrong I'm sure[00:01:10]

Biddy then gave her a belt on the gob[00:01:12]

And left her sprawling on the floor[00:01:14]

There the war did soon engage[00:01:16]

Woman to woman and man to man[00:01:18]

Shillelah law was all the rage[00:01:20]

An a row and a ruction soon began[00:01:22]

Whack fol de dah[00:01:23]

Now dance to your partner[00:01:24]

Welt the floor your trotters shake[00:01:25]

Wasn't it the truth they told ye lots of fun[00:01:27]

At finnegan's wake[00:01:30]

Then mickey maloney raised his head[00:01:31]

When a bottle of whiskey flew at him[00:01:32]

It missed him falling on the bed[00:01:34]

The liquor scattered over tim[00:01:36]

Tim revives see how he rises[00:01:38]

Timothy rising from the bed[00:01:40]

Then whirl your whiskey around[00:01:42]

Like blazes thanum o'n dhoul[00:01:43]

Do ye think I'm dead[00:01:44]

Whack fol de dah[00:01:46]

Now dance to your partner[00:01:46]

Welt the floor your trotters shake[00:01:47]

Wasn't it the truth they told ye lots of fun[00:01:49]

At finnegan's wake[00:01:52]
