[00:00.000] 作曲 : Traditional arranged by David Kincaid
[00:18.139] No doubt you've all heard of the hop of Tim Lannigan
[00:22.579] 'Twas nothing to what I will tell you about.
[00:26.207] At a spree I once had in great Washington City,
[00:30.312] To see which I got all my new clothes out of spout.
[00:34.422] One evening a ticket I got for the White House.
[00:38.247] All dressed in my best on old Abe I did call.
[00:42.495] Be jabbers, the fun it will ne'er be forgotten
[00:46.182] The night I did dance at the president's ball.
[00:54.744] A servant, he stood at the door for to take me to
[00:58.581] Where Abraham and his lady did stand.
[01:02.155] So nervous I felt that a trifle would shake me
[01:06.203] Til the lady herself took me gently in hand.
[01:10.238] But when they struck up with a hundred wee fiddles,
[01:14.304] And Billy O'Seward the dances did call,
[01:18.368] There was me and old Chase and his wife and his daughters
[01:22.194] Danced Father Jack Walsh at the president's ball.
[01:34.647] There was Henry Beecher and Barnum's "What-is-it"
[01:38.464] And the mayor of Squedunck with an Albany gal,
[01:42.155] With ten thousand sutlers and army contractors
[01:46.168] And brigadier generals no figures could tell.
[01:50.224] There was Fernandy Wood and a host of place seekers
[01:54.239] But soon a loud shout did ascend through the hall.
[01:58.061] 'Twas the people applauding brave Grant and McClellan,
[02:02.160] The pride and the joy of the president's ball.
[03:28.935] A soldier, he came and he tried for to enter
[03:32.678] With medals for battles all over his breast.
[03:36.554] But being a private nobody durst venture
[03:40.618] To let him come in there of shoddy the best.
[03:44.587] The British ambassador were just about to leave,
[03:48.657] And he managed to steal Mrs. Cunningham's shawl.
[03:52.851] And Miles O'Reiley, the prince of all poets,
[03:56.633] He pinched all the spoons at the president's ball.
[04:09.232] When daylight broke, they stopped all the dancing,
[04:12.579] And then there commenced such a hullabaloo.
[04:16.545] For senator Sumner, he drank to Jeff Davis
[04:20.698] And Stanton, he swore he would quick put them through.
[04:24.565] Then at it they went like Tom King and Heenin
[04:28.778] The police rushed in as the ladies did squall.
[04:32.701] They carried Abe Lincoln home drunk on a stretcher
[04:38.274] And that put an end to the president's ball.
