In [Em]the mid[Am]st of the melee

Some of the boys declared
she was plastered
Had a small drop too much I suppose

[Verse 11]
[Am]Young Scotty Jenkins so big and able
[G]Saw his fair colleen
stretched by the wall
[Am]Tore the left leg from under the table
And smashed all the dishes at Flannigan's

[Verse 12]
[Am]Boy, oh, boy, now this was a rumble
My[G]self took a lick from
mean Ricky Green
But [Am]I soon replied
to that fine introduction
And gave him a terrible
kick in the spleen

[Verse 13]
[Am]Talent the piper nearly got strangled
They [G]squeezed on his bellows,
chanters and all
The [Am]girls in the middle
nearly got trampled
And that put an end to Flannigan's ball
