In the town of Athy one Jeremy Lanigan
Battered away till he hadn't a pound
His father died and made him a man again
Left him a farm and an acre of ground
He gave a grand ball to his friends and relations
Who did not forget him when he went to the wall
They were startin' all sorts of onsensical dances
Turnin' around in a nate whirligig
Oh, boys, there was the ructions
Myself got a lick from big Phelim Mc Hugh
But I soon replied to his kind introductions
And kicked up a terrible hullabaloo
Old Shamus the piper had like to be strangled
Thеy squeezed up his pipe, bellows, chantеrs and all
The girls in their ribbons they got all entangled
And that was the end to Lanigan's ball
Battered away till he hadn't a pound
His father died and made him a man again
Left him a farm and an acre of ground
He gave a grand ball to his friends and relations
Who did not forget him when he went to the wall
They were startin' all sorts of onsensical dances
Turnin' around in a nate whirligig
Oh, boys, there was the ructions
Myself got a lick from big Phelim Mc Hugh
But I soon replied to his kind introductions
And kicked up a terrible hullabaloo
Old Shamus the piper had like to be strangled
Thеy squeezed up his pipe, bellows, chantеrs and all
The girls in their ribbons they got all entangled
And that was the end to Lanigan's ball
