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

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

E A E
First, little Micky Mulligan got up to show them how,
E A B
and then the Widda' Cafferty steps out and makes her bow.
E A E
I could dance you off your legs, says her, 'as sure as you are born,
E C#m A B E
if ye'll only make the piper play, "The hare was in the corn."
E B C#m B
So Phil plays up to the best of his ability,
E B F# B
the ladies and the gentlemen begin to do their share.
E B C#m B
'Faith, then Mick, it's you that has agility
E C#m A B
Begorra Mrs. Cafferty, yer leppin' like a hare!'
[Chorus]
E A E
With the toot of the flute, and the twiddle of the fiddle, O,
E A B
hopping in the middle, like a herrin' on the griddle, O.
E A E
Up! down, hands aroun', crossin' to the wall,

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