Tim Fin-ne-gan lived in Walk-in' Street
A gen-tle I-rish man, might-y odd
He had a brogue both rich and sweet
He had a brogue both rich and sweet
And to rise in the world,
And to rise in the world,
He car-ried a hod
Now Tim had a sort o' the tip-plin' way
With a love for the liq-uor
With a love for the liq-uor
Poor Tim was born
To help him on with his work each day
To help him on with his work each day
He'd a drop o' the cray-thur ev-'ry morn
Whack fol the darn O,
Whack fol the darn O,
Dance to your part-ner
Dance to your part-ner
Whirl the floor, your trot-ters shake
Was-n't it the truth I told you
Lots of fun at Fin-ne-gan's Wake
