LITTLE JOHNNY DUGAN. Copyright, 1893, by T. B. Harms & Co. Words by Thomas Le Mack. Music by Andrew Mack. 
Listen for a moment and I'll tell to ye a story. (Yes!)* It happened down to Slattery's a week ago to-night: (It did!) Singing, dancing, drinking, yes, and we were in our glory; (We were!) The Fun It didn't last long, for it ended in a fight. (It would!) At ten o'clock big Dan McCarthy he lept in the door, (Ha. ha!) And then, my friends, without a provocation or a cause, (Well!) He took a hold of Dugan and he threw him on the floor. (He would!) Oh, listen just a moment, and I'll you how it was: (Just!) 
Chorus. Solo:-Dan McCarthy took a stick and made a smash at Dugan. Chorus:-What, little Johnny Dugan? Solo:-Yes; he swears he'll have his life. Chorus:-What did Dugan do to him? Solo: He swears he was untrue to him. Chorus: Did Dugan owe him money? Solo:-No-he stole McCarthy's wife. 
Course, you know it isn't right to quarrel at a party, (No!) Especially when they're Irish, for they all get mixing in; (They would!) Dooley. Fagan, Slattery, Tim Cronin and McCarthy, (Yes!) The way they thumped each other, sure, it really was a sin. (It was!) Of course, you know it wasn't right to do what Dugan done, (No!) To rob McCarthy's home and he a burden to his life. (Just!) must!) There must be compensation when the judgment day does come; (There If I was Johnny Dugan I'd get him another wife. (Good!)-Chor.
