"Down Went McGinty" (sometimes referred to as "Down Went Dan McGinty" and "Down Went M'Ginty") is an 1889 song written by Joseph Flynn. It was first performed by Flynn and his partner Frank Sheridan, at Hyde and Behman's Theater in Brooklyn. The lyrics depict the misadventures of a stereotypically "naive and pugnacious" Irishman named Dan McGinty; the last verse describes his suicide by drowning: "Down went McGinty / to the bottom of the sea". Film historian Jeff Jaeckle has described McGinty's actions as "conform(ing) to contemporaneous anti-Irish prejudice".
