Oh the night that Ted Kennedy died, is a night I'll never forget Some of the boys got loaded drunk, and they ain't got sober yet; As long as a bottle was passed around every man was feelin' gay O'Leary came with the bagpipes, some music for to play
Chorus: That's how they showed their respect for Ted Kennedy That's how they showed their honour and their pride; They said it was a sin and shame and they winked at one another And every drink in the place was full the night Ted Kennedy died
As Mrs. Kennedy sat in the corner pouring out her grief Kelly and his gang came tearing down the street They went into an empty room and a bottle of whiskey stole They put the bottle with the corpse to keep that whiskey cold
Chorus
About two o'clock in the morning after empty'ing the jug Doyle rolls up the ice box lid to see poor Teddy's mug We stopped the clock so Mrs. Kennedy couldn't tell the time And at a quarter after two we argued it was nine
Chorus
They stopped the hearse on George Street outside Sundance Saloon They all went in at half past eight and staggered out at noon They went up to the graveyard, so holy and sublime Found out when they got there, they'd left the corpse behind!
Chorus
Oh the night that Ted Kennedy died, is a night I'll never forget Some of the boys got loaded drunk and they ain't been sober yet; As long as a bottle was passed around every man was feelin' gay O'Leary came with the bagpipes, some music for to play

Oh the night that Ted Kennedy died, is a night I'll never forget
Some of the boys got loaded drunk, and they ain't got sober yet;
As long as a bottle was passed around every man was feelin' gay
O'Leary came with the bagpipes, some music for to play
Chorus:
That's how they showed their respect for Ted Kennedy
That's how they showed their honour and their pride;
They said it was a sin and shame and they winked at one another
And every drink in the place was full the night Ted Kennedy died
As Mrs. Kennedy sat in the corner pouring out her grief
Kelly and his gang came tearing down the street
They went into an empty room and a bottle of whiskey stole
They put the bottle with the corpse to keep that whiskey cold
Chorus
About two o'clock in the morning after empty'ing the jug
Doyle rolls up the ice box lid to see poor Teddy's mug
We stopped the clock so Mrs. Kennedy couldn't tell the time
And at a quarter after two we argued it was nine
Chorus
They stopped the hearse on George Street outside Sundance Saloon
They all went in at half past eight and staggered out at noon
They went up to the graveyard, so holy and sublime
Found out when they got there, they'd left the corpse behind!
Chorus
Oh the night that Ted Kennedy died, is a night I'll never forget
Some of the boys got loaded drunk and they ain't been sober yet;
As long as a bottle was passed around every man was feelin' gay
O'Leary came with the bagpipes, some music for to play
Chorus
