Late one night, when we were all in bed,

Old Lady Leary lit the lantern in the shed,

And when the cow kicked it over,

She winked her eye and said,

“There’ll be a hot time in the ol’ town tonight!”

FIRE!  FIRE!  FIRE!

Ten nights dark, when bed we were all in,

Old Leary lady hung the shed her lantern in,

And when the kick cowed it over,

She eyed her wink and said,

"There'll be a town hot in the time ol' tonight!"

IFER!  IFER!  IFER!
