Thread Name: Tune Req: Finnegans Wake
Subject: RE: Tune Req: Finnegans Wake
Re: the lyrics for Finnegan's Wake in the DT; I have a 1952 songbook with a different chorus:

With my philalloo, hubbaboo, whack hurroo boys,
Didn't we sing till our jaws did ache,
And shout and laugh and drink and sing,
Oh, it's lots of fun at Finnegan's wake.

Alternate lyrics, perhaps?
