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

[Verse 2]
B E B
There was Mister Denis Dogherty, who kep' the runnin' dog,
B E F#
there was little crooked Paddy, from the Tiraloughett bog.
B E B
There was boys from every Barony, and girls from ev'ry 'art',
B G#m E F# B
and the beautiful Miss Bradys, in a private ass an' cart.
B F# G#m F#
And along with them came bouncing Mrs. Cafferty,
B F# C# F#
Little Micky Mulligan was also to the fore.
B F# G#m F#
Rose, Suzanne, and Margaret O'Rafferty,
B G#m E F#
the flower of Ardmagullion, and the pride of Pethravore.
[Chorus]
B E B
With the toot of the flute, and the twiddle of the fiddle, O,
B E F#
hopping in the middle, like a herrin' on the griddle, O.
B E B
Up! down, hands aroun', crossin' to the wall,
B G#m E F# B
Oh!, hadn't we the gaiety at Phil the Fluter's ball.

[Verse 3]
B E B
First, little Micky Mulligan got up to show them how,
B E F#
and then the Widda' Cafferty steps out and makes her bow.
B E B
I could dance you off your legs, says her, 'as sure as you are born,
B G#m E F# B
if ye'll only make the piper play, "The hare was in the corn."
B F# G#m F#
So Phil plays up to the best of his ability,
B F# C# F#
the ladies and the gentlemen begin to do their share.
B F# G#m F#
'Faith, then Mick, it's you that has agility
B G#m E F#
Begorra Mrs. Cafferty, yer leppin' like a hare!'
[Chorus]
B E B
With the toot of the flute, and the twiddle of the fiddle, O,
B E F#
hopping in the middle, like a herrin' on the griddle, O.
B E B
Up! down, hands aroun', crossin' to the wall,
B G#m E F# B
Oh!, hadn't we the gaiety at Phil the Fluter's ball.

[Verse 4]
B E B
Then Phil the Fluter tipped a wink to little Crooked Pat,
B E F#
'I think it's nearly time,' says he, 'for passin' round the hat.'
B E B
So Paddy pass'd the caubeen round, and looking mighty cute,
B G#m E F# B
says, 'Ye've got to pay the piper when he tooters on the flute.'
B F# G#m F#
Then all joined in with the greatest joviality,
B F# C# F#
covering the buckle, and the shuffle, and the cut.
B F# G#m F#
Jigs were danced, of the very finest quality,
B G#m E F#
the Widda' bet the company at 'handling the fut.'
[Chorus]
B E B
With the toot of the flute, and the twiddle of the fiddle, O,
B E F#
hopping in the middle, like a herrin' on the griddle, O.
B E B
Up! down, hands aroun', crossin' to the wall,
B G#m E F# B
Oh!, hadn't we the gaiety at Phil the Fluter's ball.
