Back to Flaming O'Flanigan's
FLAMING O'FLANIGAN'S JIG. Irish, Jig. C Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABA. New York City researcher, writer and musician Don Meade finds the title to be taken from a 19th century song, with a chorus that goes:
Hooroo! Whack!
For that was the way with the Flaming O'Flannagans,
From the first illigant boys of that name;
For kissing and courting, and filling the can again,
Drinking and fighting like cocks of the game.
Hooroo! Whack!
