Clancy Lowered The Boom

Melody - Seq. by Patrick Jolly

Now Clancy was a peaceful man
If you know what I mean,
The cops picked up the pieces
After Clancy left the scene,
He never looked for trouble
That's a fact you can assume,
But never-the-less when trouble would press.
Clancy lowered the boom!
Chorus:
Oh, that Clancy, Oh that Clancy
Whenever they got his Irish up,
Clancy lowered the boom!

2. O'Leary was a fighting man,
They all knew he was tough,
He strutted 'round the neighborhood,
A-shootin' off his guff,
He picked a fight with Clancy,
Then and there he sealed his doom,
Before you could shout "O'Leary, look out!"
Clancy lowered the boom!
Chorus:

3. O'Hollihan delivered ice
To Misses Clancy's flat,
He'd always linger for a while,
To talk of this and that,
One day he kissed her,
Just as Clancy walked into the room,
Before you could say the time of day,
Clancy lowered the boom!
Chorus:
