Finnegan's Wake - Waxies Dargle[00:00:00]

Ah Tim Finnegan lived in Walkin' Street[00:00:02]

A gentleman Irish mighty odd[00:00:06]

Well he had a tongue both rich and sweet[00:00:10]

An' to rise in the world he carried a hod[00:00:14]

Ah but Tim had a sort of a tipplin' way[00:00:19]

With the love of the liquor he was born[00:00:22]

An' to send him on his way each day[00:00:27]

He'd a drop of the craythur every morn[00:00:32]

Whack fol the dah will ya dance to yer partner[00:00:35]

Around the flure yer trotters shake[00:00:37]

Wasn't it the truth I told you [00:00:40]

Lots of fun at Finnegan's Wake[00:00:43]

One morning Tim was rather full[00:00:47]

His head felt heavy which made him shake[00:00:50]

He fell off the ladder and he broke his skull[00:00:52]

And they carried him home his corpse to wake[00:00:55]

Well they rolled him up in a nice clean sheet[00:00:57]

And they laid him out upon the bed[00:01:00]

With a bottle of whiskey at his feet[00:01:02]

And a barrel of porter at his head[00:01:05]

Whack fol the dah will ya dance to yer partner[00:01:07]

Around the flure yer trotters shake[00:01:10]

Wasn't it the truth I told you [00:01:12]

Lots of fun at Finnegan's Wake[00:01:15]

Well his friends assembled at the wake[00:01:20]

And Mrs Finnegan called for lunch[00:01:22]

Well first they brought in tay and cake[00:01:25]

Then pipes tobacco and brandy punch[00:01:27]

Then the widow Malone began to cry[00:01:30]

"Such a lovely corpse did you ever see [00:01:32]

Arrah Tim avourneen why did you die "[00:01:35]

"Will ye hould your gob " said Molly McGee[00:01:37]

Whack fol the dah will ya dance to yer partner[00:01:40]

Around the flure yer trotters shake[00:01:42]

Wasn't it the truth I told you [00:01:44]

Lots of fun at Finnegan's Wake[00:01:47]

Well Mary O'Connor took up the job[00:01:51]

"Biddy" says she "you're wrong I'm sure"[00:01:54]

Well Biddy gave her a belt in the gob[00:01:56]

And left her sprawling on the floor[00:01:59]

Well civil war did then engage[00:02:01]

T'was woman to woman and man to man[00:02:03]

Shillelagh law was all the rage[00:02:06]

And a row and a ruction soon began[00:02:08]

Whack fol the dah will ya dance to yer partner[00:02:11]

Around the flure yer trotters shake[00:02:13]

Wasn't it the truth I told you [00:02:16]

Lots of fun at Finnegan's Wake[00:02:18]

Well Tim Maloney raised his head[00:02:22]

When a bottle of whiskey flew at him[00:02:26]

He ducked and landing on the bed[00:02:29]

The whiskey scattered over Tim[00:02:33]

Bedad he revives see how he rises[00:02:37]

Tim Finnegan rising in the bed[00:02:41]

Saying "Whittle your whiskey around like blazes[00:02:45]

T'underin' Jaysus do ye think I'm dead "[00:02:48]

Whack fol the dah will ya dance to yer partner[00:02:50]

Around the flure yer trotters shake[00:02:53]

Wasn't it the truth I told you [00:02:55]

Lots of fun at Finnegan's Wake[00:02:58]
