Mick McGilligan one fine day
Got a lot of money from the USA
All through the death of his uncle Joe
He got a million and a half or so
McGilligan says, I'll have a ball
Down at the old ancestral hall
Invite the neighbours one and all
And we'll have lots of fun
So we all went down to Mick McGilligan's ball
Where they had to tear the paper off the wall
To make room for all the people in the hall
All the girls and boys made a devil of a noise
At Mick McGilligan's ball
So we all went down to Mick McGilligan's ball
Where they had to tear the paper off the wall
To make room for all the people in the hall
All the girls and boys made a devil of a noise
At Mick McGilligan's ball
