As Glong as a bottle was passed around every Cman was feeling Dgay
Oh GLeary came with a bagpipe, some music for to play
GThat's how they showed their Crespect for Patty DMurphy
GThat's how they showed their Chonour and their Dpride

GAnd every G/F#drink in the Emplace was Dfull the Cnight Pat DMurphy Gdied

As Mrs. Murphy sat in the corner, pouring out her grief
Kelly and his gang came tearing down the street
They went into an empty room and a bottle of whisky stole
They put the bottle with the corpse to keep that whisky cold
Chorus
About 2 o'clock in the morning after emptying the jug
Doyle does up the icebox lit the sea for Patty's mug (')
He stopped the clock to Mrs. Murphy couldn't see the time
And at a quarter after 2 we argued it was 9

This isn't totally correct but it's the best I could get.
Well they stopped the hearse on George Street outside some damn saloon
They all went in at half past 8 and staggered out at noon
They went up to the graveyard so holy and sublime
Found out when they got there they left the corpse behind
