Irish traditional song lyrics \u2014 collected by Beer Belly Band.<\/em><\/p>\n

Now Clancy was a peaceful man, if you know what I mean.
\nThe cops picked up the pieces after Clancy left the scene.
\nHe never looked for trouble that’s a fact you can assume.
\nBut never the less, when trouble would press Clancy lowered the boom!<\/p>\n

Chorus:
\nOh, that Clancy! Oh, that Clancy!
\nWhenever they got his Irish up,
\nClancy lowered the boom!<\/p>\n

O’Leary was a fighting man; they all knew he was tough.
\nHe strutted round the neighborhood, a shootin’ off his guff.
\nHe picked a fight with Clancy; then and there he sealed his doom.
\nBefore you could shout “O’Leary, look out!”
\nClancy lowered the boom!
\nChorus<\/p>\n

Clancy left the barbershop with tonic on his, hair,
\nHe walked into the poolroom and he met O’Reilly there.
\nO’Reilly said, “For goodness sake, now do I smell perfume?”
\nBefore you could stack your cue in the rack,
\nClancy lowered the boom!
\nChorus<\/p>\n

Mulrooney walked into the bar and ordered up a round.
\nHe left his drink to telephone, and Clancy drank it down.
\nMulrooney said “Who drunk me, drink? I’ll lay him in his tomb!”
\nBefore you could pat the top of your hat,
\nClancy lowered the boom!
\nChorus<\/p>\n

The neighbors all turned out for Kate O’Grady’s wedding night.
\nMcDougal said, “Let’s have some fun, I think I’ll start a fight!”
\nHe wrecked the hall, then kissed the bride and pulverized the groom.
\nThen quick as a wink, before you could think,
\nClancy lowered the boom!
\nChorus<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
