[00:00:00] Phil the Fluter's Ball - Ruby Murray

[00:00:05] Have you heard of phil the fluther of the town of ball muck

[00:00:08] The times were going hard with him in fact the man was broke

[00:00:11] He just sent out a notice to his neighbors one an all

[00:00:14] As to how he'd like their company that evening at a ball

[00:00:17] And when writing out he was careful to suggest to them

[00:00:20] If they found a hat of his convenient to the dure

[00:00:23] The more they put in whenever he requested them

[00:00:25] The better would the music be for battering the flute

[00:00:28] With the toot of the flute

[00:00:29] And the twiddle of the fiddle oh

[00:00:31] Hopping in the middle like a herring on the griddle oh

[00:00:34] Up down hands around

[00:00:35] Crossing to the wall

[00:00:37] Oh hadn't we the gaiety at phil the fluther's ball

[00:00:45] There was mister denis doherty who kept the running dog

[00:00:48] There was little crooked paddy from the tiraloughett bog

[00:00:51] There was boys from every barony and girls from every art

[00:00:53] The beautiful miss brady's in a private a** and cart

[00:00:56] Along with them came bouncing mrs cafferty

[00:00:59] Little micky mulligan was also to the fore

[00:01:02] Rose suzanne and margaret o'rafferty

[00:01:05] The flower of ardmagullion and the pride of pethravore

[00:01:07] With the toot of the flute

[00:01:09] The twiddle of the fiddle oh

[00:01:10] Hopping in the middle like a herring on the griddle oh

[00:01:13] Up down hands around

[00:01:15] Crossing to the wall

[00:01:16] Oh hadn't we the gaiety at phil the fluther's ball

[00:01:24] Then phil the fluther tipped a wink to little crooked pat

[00:01:27] I think it's nearly time sez he for passing round the hat

[00:01:30] So paddy passed the caubeen round and looking mighty cute

[00:01:33] Since you've got to pay the piper when he toothers on the flute

[00:01:36] All joined in wild the greatest joviality

[00:01:39] Covering the buckle and the shuffle and the cut

[00:01:42] Jigs were danced of the very finest quality

[00:01:44] The wider bet the company at handling the fut

[00:01:47] With the toot of the flute

[00:01:48] The twiddle of the fiddle oh

[00:01:50] Hopping in the middle like a herring on the griddle oh

[00:01:53] Up down hands around

[00:01:54] Crossing to the wall

[00:01:57] Oh hadn't we the gaiety at phil the fluther's ball
