《Finnigan’s Wake》歌词

[00:00:00] Finnigan's Wake - The Clancy Brothers

[00:00:02] Tim Finnegan lived in watling street

[00:00:04] A gentle Irishman mighty odd

[00:00:07] He'd a beautiful brogue so rich and sweet

[00:00:09] To rise in the world he carried a hod

[00:00:11] See he'd sort of a tipplin' way

[00:00:13] With love for the liquor poor Tim was born

[00:00:16] To help him a man with his work each day

[00:00:18] He'd a drop of the craythin' every morning

[00:00:20] Whack fol de dah

[00:00:22] Dance to your partner

[00:00:23] Welt the floor your trotters shake

[00:00:24] Wasn't it the truth they told ye lots of fun

[00:00:28] At Finnegan's wake

[00:00:29] One morning Tim got rather full

[00:00:31] His head felt heavy which made him shake

[00:00:33] Fell from a ladder and he broke his skull

[00:00:35] They carried him home his corpse to wake

[00:00:37] Rolled him up in a nice clean sheet

[00:00:40] And laid him out upon the bed

[00:00:42] A gallon of whiskey at his feet

[00:00:44] And a bottle of porter at his head

[00:00:46] Whack fol de dah

[00:00:48] Dance to your partner

[00:00:49] Welt the floor your trotters shake

[00:00:51] Wasn't it the truth they told ye lots of fun

[00:00:54] At Finnegan's wake

[00:00:55] His friends assembled at the wake

[00:00:57] And misses Finnegan called for lunch

[00:00:59] First she brought in tea and cake

[00:01:02] Then pipes tobacco and whiskey punch

[00:01:04] Biddy O'Brien began to cry

[00:01:06] Such a nice clean corpse did you ever see

[00:01:08] Tim me boy yadda hoy dida ho yada

[00:01:10] Arrah hold your goba said Patty Megee

[00:01:12] Whack fol de dah

[00:01:14] Dance to your partner

[00:01:15] Welt the floor your trotters shake

[00:01:17] Wasn't it the truth they told ye lots of fun

[00:01:20] At Finnegan's wake

[00:01:21] Then O'Connor took up the job

[00:01:23] Arrah biddy says she ye're wrong I'm sure

[00:01:25] Biddy then gave her a belt on the gob

[00:01:28] And left her sprawling on the floor

[00:01:29] There the war did soon engage

[00:01:32] Woman to woman and man to man

[00:01:34] Shillelah law was all the rage

[00:01:36] An a row and a ruction soon began

[00:01:38] Whack fol de dah

[00:01:39] Dance to your partner

[00:01:40] Welt the floor your trotters shake

[00:01:43] Wasn't it the truth they told ye lots of fun

[00:01:46] At Finnegan's wake

[00:01:47] Then Mickey Maloney raised his head

[00:01:49] When a bottle of whiskey flew at him

[00:01:51] It missed him falling on the bed

[00:01:53] The liquor scattered over Tim

[00:01:55] Tim revives see how he rises

[00:01:57] Timothy rising from the bed

[00:01:59] Then Whirl your whiskey around

[00:02:01] Like blazes Thanum o'n Dhoul

[00:02:02] Do ye think I'm dead

[00:02:04] Whack fol de dah

[00:02:05] Dance to your partner

[00:02:06] Welt the floor your trotters shake

[00:02:08] Wasn't it the truth they told ye lots of fun

[00:02:11] At Finnegan's wake
