[Verse 1]
C F C
Have you heard of Phil the Fluter from the town of Ballymuck?
C F G
The times were going hard with him, in fact the man was broke.
C F C
So he just sent out a notice to his neighbours, one and all,
C Am F G C
as to how he'd like their company that evening at a ball.
C G Am G
And when writin' out he was careful to suggest to them,
C G D G
that if they found a hat of his convenient to the door.
C G Am G
The more they put in, whenever he requested them,
C Am F G
the better would the music be for batterin' the floor.
[Chorus]
C F C
With the toot of the flute, and the twiddle of the fiddle, O,
C F G
hopping in the middle, like a herrin' on the griddle, O.
C F C
Up! down, hands aroun', crossin' to the wall,
C Am F G C
Oh!, hadn't we the gaiety at Phil the Fluter's ball.

C F C
There was Mister Denis Dogherty, who kep' the runnin' dog,
C F G
there was little crooked Paddy, from the Tiraloughett bog.
C F C
There was boys from every Barony, and girls from ev'ry 'art',
C Am F G C
and the beautiful Miss Bradys, in a private ass an' cart.
C G Am G
And along with them came bouncing Mrs. Cafferty,
C G D G
Little Micky Mulligan was also to the fore.
C G Am G
Rose, Suzanne, and Margaret O'Rafferty,
C Am F G
the flower of Ardmagullion, and the pride of Pethravore.
[Chorus]
C F C
With the toot of the flute, and the twiddle of the fiddle, O,
C F G
hopping in the middle, like a herrin' on the griddle, O.
C F C
Up! down, hands aroun', crossin' to the wall,
C Am F G C
Oh!, hadn't we the gaiety at Phil the Fluter's ball.

C F C
First, little Micky Mulligan got up to show them how,
C F G
and then the Widda' Cafferty steps out and makes her bow.
C F C
I could dance you off your legs, says her, 'as sure as you are born,
C Am F G C
if ye'll only make the piper play, "The hare was in the corn."
C G Am G
So Phil plays up to the best of his ability,
C G D G
the ladies and the gentlemen begin to do their share.
C G Am G
'Faith, then Mick, it's you that has agility
C Am F G
Begorra Mrs. Cafferty, yer leppin' like a hare!'
[Chorus]
C F C
With the toot of the flute, and the twiddle of the fiddle, O,
C F G
hopping in the middle, like a herrin' on the griddle, O.
C F C
Up! down, hands aroun', crossin' to the wall,
C Am F G C
Oh!, hadn't we the gaiety at Phil the Fluter's ball.

Then Phil the Fluter tipped a wink to little Crooked Pat,
C F G
'I think it's nearly time,' says he, 'for passin' round the hat.'
C F C
So Paddy pass'd the caubeen round, and looking mighty cute,
C Am F G C
says, 'Ye've got to pay the piper when he tooters on the flute.'
C G Am G
Then all joined in with the greatest joviality,
C G D G
covering the buckle, and the shuffle, and the cut.
C G Am G
Jigs were danced, of the very finest quality,
C Am F G
the Widda' bet the company at 'handling the fut.'
[Chorus]
C F C
With the toot of the flute, and the twiddle of the fiddle, O,
C F G
hopping in the middle, like a herrin' on the griddle, O.
C F C
Up! down, hands aroun', crossin' to the wall,
C Am F G C
Oh!, hadn't we the gaiety at Phil the Fluter's ball.
