Lyrics

There was an old man called Michael Finnegan,
He grew whiskers on his chinnigan.
The wind came up and blew them in again.
Poor Old Michael Finnegan, begin again.
There was an old man called Michael Finnegan,
He went fishing with a pinnegan.
Caught a fish and dropped it in again.
Poor old Michael Finnegan, begin again.
There was an old man called Michael Finnegan,
Climbed a tree and barked his shinnegan.
Took off several yards of skin again.
Poor Old Michael Finnegan, begin again.
There was an old man called Michael Finnegan,
Ran a race and thought he’d win again.
Got so puffed that he had to go in again.
Poor Old Michael Finnegan, begin again.
It’s raining, it’s pouring,
The old man in snoring.
Bumped his head and he went to bed
And he couldn’t get up in the morning.
Rain, rain, go away
Come again some other day.
There was an old man called Michael Finnegan,
He kicked up an awful dinnegan.
Because they said he must not sing again.
Poor Old Michael Finnegan, begin again.
There was an old man called Michael Finnegan,
He grew fat and then grew thin again.
Then he died and had to begin again.
Poor Old Michael Finnegan!
