Dropkick Murphys - Finnigan's Wake Lyrics
Album:

tim finnegan lived in watling street,
a gentle irishman - mighty odd –
he'd a beautiful brogue so rich and sweet,
to rise in the world he carried a hod,
you see he'd sort of a trippling way:
with love for the liquor poor tim was born,
to help him on with his work each day,
he'd a drop of the craythor every morn'
one morning tim was rather full,
his head felt heavy,
which made him shake,
fell from the ladder and broke his skull,
so they carried him home,
his corpse to wake,
rolled him up in a nice clean sheat,
and laid him upon the bed,
a bottle of whiskey at his feet,
and a gallon of porter at his head
Chorus
and whack fol-de-dah
now dance to your partner,
welt the floor,
your trotters shake
wasn't it the truth
i told ye lots of fun at finnegan's wake

his friends assembled at his wake
and missus finnegan called for lunch
first they brought in tay and cake
then pipes, tobacco and whiskey punch
biddy o'brien begged to cry,
such a nice clean corpse
did you see, tim my dear why did you die? arrah hold your gob
see paddy magee.

chorus

then peggy o'connor took up the job
biddy, she says
ye're wrong i'm sure,
biddy then gave her a belt on the gob
and left her sprawling on the floor,
then the war did soon engage
woman to woman and man to man
shillelah-law was all the rage,
an a row and a ruction soon began
mickey maloney raised his head
when a bottle of whiskey flew at him,
it missed him falling on the bed,
the liquor scattered over tim,
tim revives,
see how he rises,
timothy rising from the bed
whirl your whisky around like blazes, tonamondeal,
do ye think i'm dead
