Joyce Country Céilí Band
Leo Moran | Davy Carton | Pearse DohertyWe’re the Joyce Country Céilí Band
Playing away and we’re doing grand
Well, if we’re singing a song won’t you give us a hand
‘Cos we’re the Joyce Country Céilí Band
Friday night, off we go
Tune the fiddle, strain the bow
We take it handy for the first few sets
Sure there’s hardly anyone listening yet
We’re the Joyce Country Céilí Band
Playing away and we’re doing grand
Well, if we’re singing a song won’t you give us a hand
‘Cos we’re the Joyce Country Céilí Band
Thomas and Mary out on the floor
Well, they never lost it, that’s for sure
In his sparking shoes and his daz-white shirt
She has a brand new perm and a pleated skirt
And we’re the Joyce Country Céilí Band
Playing away and we’re doing grand
Well, if we’re singing a song won’t you give us a hand
‘Cos we’re the Joyce Country Céilí Band
We do do’s and functions, and weddings and wakes
Meats and salads, buns and cakes
Well, if you need a few tunes just give us a call
For the house, the pub or the parish hall
And we’re the Joyce Country Céilí Band
Playing away and we’re doing grand
Well, if we’re singing a song won’t you give us a hand
‘Cos we’re the Joyce Country Céilí Band
There’s a princess on the floor all night
(Mona, Mona call her Mona)
She can fairly throw them shapes alright
(Mona, Mona call her Mona)
Howya Madge are you on you own?
Howya fixed for a seat back home
And we’re the Joyce Country Céilí Band
Playing away and we’re doing grand
Well, if we’re singing a song won’t you give us a hand
‘Cos we’re the Joyce Country Céilí Band
We’re the Joyce Country Céilí Band
