Who threw the overalls in Mrs. Murphy's chowder?
Nobody spoke, so he shouted all the louder
It's an Irish trick that's true
I can lick the mick that threw
The overalls in Mrs. Murphy's chowder!
Mrs. Murphy gave a party 'bout a week ago
Everything was plentiful, well the Murphys they're not slow
They treated us like gentlemen, we tried to act the same
Only for what happened, huh, it was an awful shame
Mrs. Murphy dished the chowder out, and fainted on the spot
She found a pair of overalls at the bottom of the pot
Tim Nolan he got rippin' mad, his eyes were bulging out
He jumped upon the piano and loudly he did shout
Who threw the overalls in Mrs. Murphy's chowder?
Nobody spoke, so he shouted all the louder
It's an Irish trick that's true
I can lick the mick that threw
The overalls in Mrs. Murphy's chowder!
They dragged the pants from out the soup and laid 'em on the floor
Each man swore upon his life he'd not seen 'em before
They were plastered up with mortar and were worn out at the knee
They had their many ups and downs as we could plainly see
When Mrs. Murphy she came to she starts to cry and pout
She'd had them in the wash that day, forgot to take 'em out
Tim Nolan he excused himself for what he'd said that night
So we put music to the words and sung with all our might
Who threw the overalls in Mrs. Murphy's chowder?
Nobody spoke, so he shouted all the louder
It's an Irish trick that's true
I can lick the mick that threw
