[00:00:01] (F)lannigan's Ball (Original Version) - Dropkick Murphys

[00:00:10] In the town of Milton one Brian Flannigan

[00:00:13] Battered away till his money was spent

[00:00:15] Then he hit a big one and felt like a man again

[00:00:17] Bought a three decker with two floors for rent

[00:00:22] He threw a big party for friends and relations

[00:00:24] At a grand old place called Florian Hall

[00:00:26] And if you'll just listen I'll make your eyes glisten

[00:00:29] To the rows and the ructions of Flannigan's ball

[00:00:32] Six long months I spent in Quincy

[00:00:34] Six long months doing nothing at all

[00:00:36] Six long months I spent in Quincy

[00:00:39] Learning to dance for Flannigan's ball

[00:00:41] I stepped out and I stepped in again

[00:00:44] I stepped out and I stepped in again

[00:00:46] I stepped out and I stepped in again

[00:00:48] Learning to dance for Flannigan's ball

[00:00:56] Free beer on tap and wine for the ladies

[00:00:58] Ziti and sauce for Mark Porzio

[00:01:00] There were Faheys and Bradys Mcauliffes and Daleys

[00:01:03] Courtin' the girls and dancing away

[00:01:07] Brian Tully sang out in his finest form

[00:01:10] The patron's responded and I lead em all

[00:01:13] I'd spent 6 months at Forbes academy

[00:01:15] Learning to dance for Flannigan's ball

[00:01:18] Six long months I spent in Quincy

[00:01:20] Six long months doing nothing at all

[00:01:22] Six long months I spent in Quincy

[00:01:25] Learning to dance for Flannigan's ball

[00:01:28] I stepped out and I stepped in again

[00:01:30] I stepped out and I stepped in again

[00:01:32] I stepped out and I stepped in again

[00:01:35] Learning to dance for Flannigan's ball

[00:01:42] The boys were hammered

[00:01:43] The girls were hearty

[00:01:44] Dancing around in couples and groups

[00:01:47] An accident happened to young Dennis Flemming

[00:01:49] Put his right leg through Miss Finneran's hoops

[00:01:54] This gal she fainted and cried bloody murder

[00:01:56] Called for her sons and gathered them all

[00:01:59] Christopher swore

[00:02:00] He'd go no further

[00:02:01] Till he had revenge at Flannigan's ball

[00:02:04] Six long months I spent in Quincy

[00:02:06] Six long months doing nothing at all

[00:02:08] Six long months I spent in Quincy

[00:02:11] Learning to dance for Flannigan's ball

[00:02:14] I stepped out and I stepped in again

[00:02:16] I stepped out and I stepped in again

[00:02:18] I stepped out and I stepped in again

[00:02:21] Learning to dance for Flannigan's ball

[00:02:28] In the midst of the melee Miss Collins fainted

[00:02:30] Her cheeks by now were as red as a rose

[00:02:33] Some of the boys declared she was plastered

[00:02:35] Had a small drop to much I suppose

[00:02:38] Young Scotty Jenkins so big and able

[00:02:40] Saw his fair Colleen stretched by the wall

[00:02:42] Tore the left leg from under the table

[00:02:44] And smashed all the dishes at Flannigan's ball

[00:02:57] Boy oh boy now this was a rumble

[00:02:59] Myself took a lick from mean Ricky Green

[00:03:02] But I soon replied to that fine introduction

[00:03:04] And gave him a terrible kick in the spleen

[00:03:06] Talent the Piper nearly got strangled

[00:03:09] They squeezed on his bellows chanters and all

[00:03:11] The girls in the middle nearly got trampled

[00:03:14] And that put an end to Flannigan's ball

[00:03:16] Six long months I spent in Quincy

[00:03:18] Six long months doing nothing at all

[00:03:21] Six long months I spent in Quincy

[00:03:23] Learning to dance for Flannigan's ball

[00:03:26] I stepped out and I stepped in again

[00:03:28] I stepped out and I stepped in again

[00:03:30] I stepped out and I stepped in again

[00:03:33] Learning to dance for Flannigan's ball
