If my fueneral is not as wild as Finnegan's wake I will rise from the dead and take the party planner with me.

I'm Irish. We sing this at parties, weddings, christenings and just nights at the local pub and of course a funeral.

If my funeral isn't this lit don't come.

If someone doesn't start a fight at my funeral, I'm not dying

You don't have to be Irish to enjoy awesome Irish songs! 👍👍🤘😎🎉💪

I ONLY JUST NOW LEARNED THAT I HAVE A THEME SONG. HOLY SHIT

Much more enjoyable and comprehensible than the book. 10/10

What's the difference between an Irish funeral and an Irish wedding? At the Irish funeral, there's one person that isn't drinking.

If you grew up in the household that I grew up in then you knew all these great Irish Catholic ballads, hearing them many decades later brings tears to my eyes and goosebumps to my skin. LONG LIVE THE IRISH.

Therapist: you can't fix mental damage Me: *AIGHT BET*

I want desperately to learn this but my mouth can't sad the words fast enough.

When he says "a nice clean sheet" i hear "an ice-cream sheet".

This song is just simply beautiful

"did you die?" Aye. But then I had to drink!

for anyone wondering, this is the perfect song to play in increments while your friend is presenting in class funniest shit we’ve ever done

Music and alcohol is their life's blood. My hats off to ye.

Izombie brought me here I love this song now

This has got to be one of my all time favorite Irish folk songs. I'm still trying to learn to play it on the concertina but I've got the musical talent of a brick so it's slow going...lol. Great song though. Makes a lot more sense now that I can see the lyrics.

Q) What's the difference between an Irish wake & an Irish funeral? A) there's one less drunk at the wake. 😊

I saw them do this live in Ann Arbor Michigan about 20 years ago... the original line up too! Absolutely fantastic night! So much shouting and dancing and clapping and hollering! Would love to relive it...

The Irish know how to throw a party, that's for sure!

I've decided to undertake the impossible task of learning this song by heart thank God I can talk fast

I love how the Irish can be so cheerful even at a funeral.

Only the irish can make a tragedy sound happy

I'm super Irish and I feel proud when I here this song. Anyone else?

I was very young when I first heard them, but I still love them!

Tim Finnegan lived in Watling Street A gentleman Irishman mighty odd He seen a brogue so soft and sweet And to rise in the world he carried the hod Tim had a sort of a tipplin' way With a love of the liquor now he was born To help him on with his work each day Had a "drop of the craythur" every morn Whack fol-the-dah, oh dance to your partner Welt the floor, your trotters shake Wasn't it the truth I told ya? Lots of fun at Finnegan's wake One mornin' Tim felt rather full His head felt heavy which made him shake Fell from a ladder and he burst his skull So they carried him home his corpse to wake Rolled him up in a nice clean sheet Laid him out upon the bed A gallon of whiskey at his feet A barrel of porter at his head Whack fol-the-dah, oh dance to your partner Welt the floor, your trotters shake Wasn't it the truth I told ya? Lots of fun at Finnegan's wake His friends assembled at the wake And Mrs. Finnegan called for lunch First they brung in tea and cake Then pipes, tobacco and whiskey punch Biddy O'Brien began to cry "Such a nice clean corpse, did you ever see? Tim mavourneen, why did you die?" "Aarrgh, shut your gob" said Paddy McGee Whack fol-the-dah, oh dance to your partner Welt the floor, your trotters shake Wasn't it the truth I told ya? Lots of fun at Finnegan's wake Patty O'Connor took up the job "Ah Biddy, " says she, "You're wrong, I'm sure" Biddy gave her a belt in the gob Then left her sprawlin' on the floor Then the war did soon enrage Woman to woman and man to man Shillelagh-law was all the rage And a row and a ruction soon began Mickey Maloney lowered his head And a bottle of whiskey flew at him Missed, and fallin' on the bed The liquor scattered over Tim Tim revives! See how he rises! Timothy risin' from the bed Sayin': "Whirl your liquor around like blazes Thunderin' Jaysus! Do you think I'm dead?" Whack fol-the-dah, oh dance to your partner Welt the floor, your trotters shake Wasn't it the truth I told ya? Lots of fun at Finnegan's wake

yo this song got everything the drink, the wake, the women fighting the men fighting timmothy finnegan waking up from the dead like "yo wtf is happening i was having a good sleep and yall ruined my shit" its so irish.

gotta love The Irish Rovers

Saw them do this live in the early 90's. Talk about bringing the house down! Great memories.

If my wake doesn't have booze and massive free for all, it will be waste.

It's 'Tim mó mhuinín' (pronounced mo vorneen) and it means my dear /love

I never knew I was capable of laughing at a song as much as I did here

Tim Finnegan lived in Walken' Street A gentleman Irishman mighty odd; He seen a brogue so soft and sweet And to rise in the world he carried the hod Tim had a sort of a tipplin' way With a love of the liquor now he was born To help him on with his work each day Had a "drop of the cray-chur" every morn Whack fol the da O, dance to your partner Welt the floor, your trotters shake; Wasn't it the truth I told you? Lots of fun at Finnegan's wake! One mornin' Tim felt rather full His head felt heavy which made him shake; Fell from a ladder and he burst his skull So they carried him home his corpse to wake Rolled him up in a nice clean sheet Laid him out upon the bed; A gallon of whiskey at his feet A barrel of porter at his head Whack fol the da O, dance to your partner Welt the floor, your trotters shake; Wasn't it the truth I told you? Lots of fun at Finnegan's wake!

“Thunderin’ Jaysus” reminds me of my Gram.

"Twas woman to woman and man to man" Oh that's the way Tim liked it!🤣

What a cheerful music. I love it. Greetings from The Netherlands!

Moral is, have fun at Finnegan's wake lol

I was really moved by this beautiful song. Wish this song will be played in my funeral and whisky will be poured on my body...!

The Irish sure have learned to steer into the skid when it comes to national stereotypes.

I've known this song my whole life. One among many old tunes

Just so's ye be knowin', it's like I tol' me Doc, I be quitin' drinkin' an' smokin' two weeks AFTER I'm dead!

Idk about where you guys are living, but this makes 2 years in a row with no St Patrick's Day parades (we have 2 in buffalo Ny) & it really sucks. So we gotta go bar hoping all weekend....the festivities begin at 1:00 pm EST. Happy St. Patty's to all!

World class fiddle 🎶

Bar's are all closed so I guess we're all just looping this huh

There were fighters, blighters, Irish dynamiters there was beer, gin, whiskey, wine and cake ("Not much cake!") There were men of high positions, there were Irish politicians, and they all got drunk at Steve O'Donnell's wake. A lesser known Irish dude.

Sublime!

LET THE WHISKEY FLO!!!!

id love to learn the ways of these fantastic people

"Timothy rising from the bed" biggest plot twist in anime

great song

I love this song :D

this is the best rendition.

best variant of this song ever

Proud to be Irish and pray one day my funeral can be half as fun!

Weirdly enough this was on Izombie

I wish we were still allowed to live this happily. 😊

always forget james joyce was irish. can't imagine him or stephen daedalus dancing to this or having much fun at all to be honest

Pull out the Tullemore dew!

Happy St. Paddy's Day 2020, all you fine lads and lasses! ☘️☘️☘️
