lirik lagu waxies dargle - lannigan's ball

[verse 1]
the town of athy, one jeremy lannigan
battered away ’til he hadn’t a shilling
his father he died and made him a man again
left him a farm and ten acres of ground

[verse 2]
he gave a grand party to friends and relations
who would not forget him when come to the will
if you’d only listen, i’d make your eyes glisten
the rows and ructions at lannigan’s ball

[verse 3]
myself, to be sure, got invitations
for all the nice boys and girls that i’d ask
in less than a minute the friends and relations
were dancing as merry as bees ’round a cask

[verse 4]
were lashings of punch and wine for the ladies
potatoes, cakes, there was bacon and tea
well, there were the nolans, the dolans, o’gradys
courting the girls and dancing away

[verse 5]
they were doing all kinds of nonsensical polkas
’round the room in a whirly gig
when julie and i soon banished their nonsense
and tipped them a twist of a real irish jig
that girl, she really got mad and me
danced ’til you’d think all the ceilings would fall
for i spent three weeks at brooks academy
learning to dance for lannigan’s ball

[chorus]
six long months i spent in dublin
six long months doing nothing at all
six long months i spent in dublin
learning to dance for lannigan’s ball
and i stepped out, and i stepped in again
i stepped out, and i stepped in again
well, i stepped out, and i stepped in again
learning to dance for lannigan’s ball

[verse 6]
the boys, all merry, the girls, all hearty
dancing around in couples and groups
an accident happened, young terence mccarthy
he put his right leg through miss flaherty’s hoops

[verse 7]
the creature, she fainted and cried “meelia murther”
and called for her brothers and gathered them all
when carmody swore that he’d go no further
’til he’d satisfaction at lannigan’s ball

[chorus]
six long months i spent in dublin
six long months doing nothing at all
six long months i spent in dublin
learning to dance for lannigan’s ball
and i stepped out, and i stepped in again
i stepped out, and i stepped out again
i stepped out, and i stepped in again
learning to dance for lannigan’s ball

[verse 8]
boys, oh boys, ’tis there was ructions
myself got a kick from young phelim mchugh
and i soon replied to his kind introduction
and kicked up a terrible hullabaloo
casey the piper was near to being strangled
they squeezed up his pipes, bellows, chanters and all
and the girls, in their ribbons, they all got entangled
and that put an end to lannigan’s ball

[chorus]
six long months i spent in dublin
six long months doing nothing at all
six long months i spent in dublin
learning to dance for lannigan’s ball
and i stepped out, and i stepped in again
and i stepped out, and i stepped in again
i stepped out, and i stepped in again
we’re learning to dance for lannigan’s ball
