The Saw Doctors - Joyce Country Céili Band lyrics

A group of young musicians including the Walsh sisters from Crimtin East, used to a**emble in Clonbur, in Joyce Country, almost every second Friday night, Pearse christened them the Joyce Country ceili Band, hence the song. We're the Joyce country ceili band Playing away and we're doing grand We're singing a song won't you give us a hand ‘cos we're the Joyce country ceili band Friday night , off we go Tune the fiddle , strain the bow Take it handy for the first few sets Sure there's hardly anyone listening yet 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's got a brand new perm And a pleated skirt We do do's and functions 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 There's a princess on the floor all night She can fairly throw them shapes alright Howya Bridie are you on you own? How'reya fixed far a spin back home
