Poor old Michael Finnegan, Irish folk for children: This age old Irish track is brough back
to life with our Nursery Rhyme Collection version. Features Rebecca Leivers on main vocal
and Mat Williams on Bones, a strange ball clicking percussive instrument.
There was an old man named Michael Finnegan,
He had whiskers on his chinnegan,
The wind blew them off but they grew in again,
Poor old Michael Finnegan (Begin again)
I know a man named named Michael Finnegan,
He went fishing with a pinnegan,
Caught a fish and dropped it in again,
Poor old Michael Finnegan (Begin again)
I know a man named named Michael Finnegan,
Climbed a tree and barked his shin again,
Slid back down and scraped his skin again,
Poor old Michael Finnegan (Begin again)
I know a man named named Michael Finnegan,
He kicked up an awful din again,
Because they said he could not sing again,
Poor old Michael Finnegan (Begin again)
I know a man named named Michael Finnegan,
He grew fat and then grew thin again,
Then he slept and had to begin again,
Poor old Michael Finnegan (Begin again)
